RAYMOND – A Hampton Falls man is hospitalized in Boston after he crashed his dirt bike yesterday on a private track off Depot Road.

Sam Coellner, 32, of Hampton Falls was airlifted from the parking lot at Planet Liquid and taken to Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital for treatment of serious injuries, according to New Hampshire Fish & Game Conservation Officer Chris McKee. Coellner is expected to recover, he said.

The crash happened about 4:30 p.m. off Depot Road on a private track about a half-mile into woods on the Raymond-Candia town line. McKee said about 10 riders were using the track, which was built on leased land, at the time of the incident.

"He (Coellner) went over a two-story jump and landed wrong," said McKee, explaining the bike landed nose-first, causing it to crash.

Coellner was taken from the scene on a Gator, the Deerfield Fire Department's 6-by-6-foot ATV fitted with a stretcher.

Also assisting at the scene were officers from Fish and Game, and crews from the Candia and Raymond fire departments.

The crash remains under investigation by Fish and Game.
