1 Dead in Fresno Motorcycle Accident on Blackstone Avenue and Herndon Avenue
FRESNO, CA (February 6, 2022) – Saturday night, a motorcyclist died in a crash on Blackstone Avenue and Herndon Avenue.
The incident occurred at about 4:45 p.m. when a motorcycle crashed with a truck making a U-turn. Moreover, the crash happened on Blackstone Avenue and Herndon Avenue.
Upon the officers’ arrival, they located a man in his early-to-mid 20s with major injuries. They found him next to his motorcycle in the middle of the street. Then, an officer started performing CPR on the motorcyclist. However, the paramedics later declared that person dead at the scene.
