A 19-year-old motorcyclist from Port Perry died following a collision with a pickup truck Tuesday night in Markham.
The crash occurred at the intersection of Major Mackenzie Drive and Reesor Road. The rider suffered serious injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. The cause of the collision remains unclear, including whether wet road conditions played a role, as the area was under a severe thunderstorm warning earlier.
York Regional Police’s Major Collision Unit is investigating and is asking witnesses to come forward by calling 905-830-0303 ext. 7704.
