A San Diego man was killed after he slammed into a sign post in Point Loma late Wednesday night.
According to the medical examiner, Chad Michael Vosskuhler, 47, was found unresponsive and without a pulse in the 3100 block of Nimitz Boulevard after his dirt bike apparently hit a curb, causing him to fly from the bike and hit a sign post.
Police said he suffered major trauma to his chest and abdomen.
Vosskuhler was given CPR by medics on the scene before being transported to the hospital for surgery in an attempt to save his life, the medical examiner said.
Despite resuscitation efforts, Vosskuhler was pronounced dead at the hospital.
The San Diego Police Department is investigating the accident.
