A New Jersey man died Monday night after his motorcycle struck a moose on Interstate 95 in rural Maine.

Maine State Police say 50-year-old Anand Sreedharan, of Princeton, was riding in Piscataquis County around 7 p.m. when a moose walked onto the highway.

Sreedharan was thrown from his motorcycle and died at the scene. The moose was also killed in the collision.
