By Tom Adams
ALVADORE, Ore. - A Junction City man died Saturday evening after crashing his motorcycle.
It happened about 7 p.m. on Alvadore Road near Sanborn Road, southwest of Junction City, according to the Lane County Sheriff's Office. Authorities say 63-year-old Roger D. Brooks lost control of a 1999 Kawasaki motorcycle on a curve, and the bike traveled through a ditch and struck a culvert and fence post before stopping. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Brooks was wearing a helmet. Authorities don't believe alcohol played a role but say speed possibly was a factor in the crash. They add there was second person on the motorcycle that authorities were looking for Saturday. |
