A 17-year-old motorcyclist was killed in a head-on crash with a pickup truck Friday afternoon on Auberry Road in Fresno County, according to the California Highway Patrol.<\/p>\n
The teen was identified as Jayce Alonzo of Junction City, Kansas, according to the Fresno County Sheriff-Coroner\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n
The crash was reported about 3 p.m. on Auberry Road south of the Fresno Rifle and Pistol Club.<\/p>\n
CHP said Alonzo was riding a BMW S1000RR motorcycle southbound and entered a sweeping right-hand curve when the motorcycle crossed over the solid double yellow lines into the northbound lane.<\/p>\n
At the same time, a 39-year-old man was driving a Ford F-350 dually pickup truck northbound and approaching the same curve. CHP said the front of the motorcycle collided with the front of the pickup truck, ejecting Alonzo onto the roadway.<\/p>\n
Emergency medical personnel provided aid, but Alonzo was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n
CHP said Alonzo was wearing a full-face helmet. Alcohol or drugs are not suspected as factors in the crash, which remains under investigation.<\/p>\n
