A man was flown to a hospital with serious head injuries Friday afternoon after his motorcycle collided with a pickup truck that was pulling a trailer in the Queen Creek area.
The crash occurred about 4:30 p.m., and Pinal County sheriff’s deputies have closed Bella Vista Road between Stardust and Gantzel roads until about 9 p.m. or 10 p.m.
The motorcycle rider’s name hasn’t been released. His current condition is unknown.

DA, your joke isn’t funny. This man was a friend of mine & my husband’s. He did not survive. Think twice next time before joking about such matters.

Th’s mom DID NOT have his cell phone as of last night midnight and is therefore UNABLE to contact TH’s friends. TH’s stepdad had my business card and was able to contact me from that.
So, if the family has NOT been in touch with you, then you need to be in touch with them.

I passed by before police were on the scene. Can anyone explain what happened or who was at fault? Was he wearing a helmet?

Don’t know who’s fault it was but he was not wearing a helmet, which was very unlike him. Details should be found out by the police soon.
