A 24-year-old motorcyclist died after being hit by a car in Sorrento Valley Friday night, the San Diego Police Department (SDPD) said.

SDPD Officer Robert Heims said the man was riding his Suzuki motorcycle northbound on Camino Santa Fe at around 9:10 p.m., making a right turn onto the 6800 block of Calle Cristobal.

The motorcyclist crossed over into the westbound lane and, for unknown reasons, laid down his motorcycle and got off.

Just then, police said a 37-year-old woman driving a Toyota 4-Runner approached the roadway and ran over the motorcyclist. He died at the scene.

The victim’s name has not yet been released. The deadly crash is under investigation.
