Motorcycle crash kills West Kelowna man
PENTICTON – A West Kelowna man was killed when he crashed his motorcycle into another vehicle this past weekend.
On Saturday, Sept. 13, a 42-year-old motorcyclist accelerated straight through a yellow light at the same time an oncoming car was making a left-hand turn at the intersection of Main Street and Industrial Avenue.
The motorcyclist was thrown from his bike and eventually succumbed to his injuries, said Sgt. Rick Dellebuur.
The driver and passenger of the car were not injured. No names have been released.
