A motorcycle rider died after crashing at 2600 Sunset Cliffs Blvd. in Ocean Beach Sunday evening, according to the San Diego Police Department.
The rider, a 60-year-old man, was riding a 2021 black Harley Davidson soft tail slim motorcycle going south at 4:04 p.m. when he hit the curb multiple times, flew off his motorcycle, then hit a palm tree and light pole, according to SDPD Officer John Buttle.
The man was declared deceased at the scene. No other vehicles were involved in the crash. DUI may be a factor, police Officer Buttle said.
