Another biker was injured early this morning in an accident in Sliema, the police said.

The 29-year-old Finnish rider, resident of Msida, was riding a Sky Team (ST 250) bike which was involved in a crash with a Suzuki Swift driven by a 35-year-old Spaniard who lives in Sliema.

The accident happened in Rudolphe Street at 2am.

The Finnish rider was taken to hospital where he was found to be suffering serious injuries.

This is the latest in a series of accidents involving motorbikes. On Sunday, a quadbike rider was killed in an accident in Mosta.
