Vehicle vs motorcycle collision

On Sunday May 27, 2012 at approximately 6:00 p.m., a Ducati motorcycle was travelling westbound on E. Yesler Wy approaching 22 Av E. At the same time, a 1996 Volvo was travelling northbound on 22 Av E approaching E. Yesler Wy. The two vehicles collided in the intersection and the motorcycle rider (sole occupant) suffered substantial injuries.

The 27 year-old motorcycle rider was treated on scene by Seattle Fire Department and subsequently transported to Harborview Medical Center via Medics where he was listed in critical condition.

The 30 year-old driver and sole occupant of the Volvo was unharmed. A Drug Recognition Expert officer responded and evaluated this driver, no signs of impairment were detected.

The investigation continues.
