In a tragic incident in Assam’s Hojai district, 63-year-old American motorcyclist Elaine Berry Thompson lost her life on Saturday following a road accident in the Lumding area. Thompson was traveling from Silchar to Dhemaji on her Royal Enfield Himalayan motorcycle when a speeding Ashok Leyland truck collided with her.
