LAKEPORT, CA (April 8, 2018) – A collision between a motorcycle and a pickup took the life of a motorcyclist, on Sunday evening. The victim was later identified as 50-year-old Jason Randall Cliff, a resident of Lakeport.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the collision happened around 7:15 PM near the intersection of Highway 175 and Highway 29.
