A man is dead, and two individuals were injured after two motorcycles collided in Beaver County.
According to a release shared by Pennsylvania State Police on Sunday, the crash occurred on the 1100 block of State Line Road in Darlington Township around 5:35 p.m. on Saturday.
Troopers say John P. Harvey, 79, of New Brighton, was riding a 1989 Harley-Davidson Dyna Convertible with a 43-year-old woman as his passenger. He was heading north on State Line Road.
A 41-year-old man was riding south in a 2011 Yamaha FZ8-N.
Police suspect the drivers were unable to see each other due to a slight elevation in the road. They said the drivers swerved, but they crashed and lost control of their bikes.
Harvey was pronounced deceased on the scene.
Police say his passenger was transferred to an Ohio hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
When the Yamaha went into an embankment, the driver became pinned beneath his bike. He was also sent to an Ohio hospital by helicopter to receive treatment for abrasions, scratches, and an injured finger.
