Kammerer, president of the Matt Haley Companies which operates restaurants in Rehoboth Beach, Lewes, Fenwick Island, Bethany Beach and Ocean View, said Haley was traveling around 18,000 feet in the mountains by motorcycle and was in a collision with a truck. He is in a remote hospital in Leh, India.
Kammerer said Haley, who was wearing a helmet, is unconscious but gradually improving. He said Haley is expected to be transferred to a hospital in New Delhi.
