A Salina man was killed early Sunday morning in a two-vehicle accident.
Damian Allegree, 42, of Salina, was northbound in the 2500 block of South Ninth Street on a 2005 Harley Davidson motorcycle when he came upon a 2018 Ford EcoSport that was stopped at the light at the access road to Planet Avenue, according to Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester. The light turned green and the ecoSport, driven by Riley Goertzen, 22 of Salina, continued northbound on South Ninth Street, Forrester reported.
Allegree's motorcycle rear-ended the EcoSport, and Allegree was ejected from the motorcycle suffering fatal injuries, according to Forrester. Allegree was not wearing a helmet, Forrester noted. Speed of travel and alcohol may have played factors in the accident, Forrester reported.
The accident occurred approximately 12:15 a.m. Sunday.
The motorcycle suffered disabling damage and the EcoSport suffered disabling damage to the rear, Forrester noted. Both vehicles were towed from the scene, he added.
The investigation is on-going.
