EAST LYME, Conn. (AP) - Police say one man was killed and three others injured after a woman accused of driving under the influence struck a motorcycle on Interstate 95 in southeastern Connecticut.

The Hartford Courant reports that police say Christina Morton-Lane of Old Lyme struck a guard rail early Sunday morning, crossed over the grass onto the highway, hitting a motorcycle driven by Robert Burr of Clinton.

His bike was struck by another motorcycle. He and his passenger were ejected.

The 35-year-old Burr was declared dead at the scene. His passenger, Emily Gorin of Clinton, was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.

Two people on the second motorcycle also were hospitalized.

Police say the 23-year-old Morton-Lane was arrested for driving under the influence. She was not injured in the crash, and it was not known if she's represented by a lawyer.
