MINNESOTA CITY, Minn. (KFGO) – A 64-year-old woman was killed in a motorcycle crash on the southbound Highway 61 ramp to eastbound I-90 on Saturday, just before 12:30. Authorities report the rider lost control of her motorcycle, leaving the road and crashed into the center median.

The motorcycle driver, Nathan L. Jeffries, 33, of Montreal, Mo., approached the back of a westbound 2017 Ford Escape while still traveling at excessive speeds. He attempted to avoid the Ford, skidded and struck the car's back end.

An initial investigation found that Roger Stevens, 58, of Springfield, was traveling northeast on Selma Pike when he failed to go around a curve, driving off the right side of the roadway, hitting a barrier, and overturning, according to Ohio State Highway Patrol.

A motorcycle was hospitalized with major injuries after a crash in Sacramento County on Monday evening, officials said.

Shelby County Sheriff’s deputy remains in the hospital following a motorcycle crash on October 15. Sergeant Samuel C. Lilley was critically injured in a crash as he was en route to his coworker’s motorcycle crash on Highway 64.
