One person has died, and others were hospitalized after a motorcycle crash in Oshkosh over the weekend.
The Oshkosh Police Department was called to the intersection of High Avenue and Wisconsin Street yesterday (September 7th) just after 6:30 p.m. on a report of an accident involving a motorcycle and a truck.
Initial investigations reveal that a motorcycle was traveling eastbound on High Avenue while the truck was heading south on Wisconsin Street.
The two vehicles would then collide in the intersection, ejecting the motorcycle operator, a 27-year-old Appleton man.
The 27-year-old would later be pronounced dead at the scene, while two occupants of the truck were transported to a local hospital for treatment.
At this time, the cause of the fatal accident remains unknown and is under investigation by the Oshkosh Police Department’s Crash Investigation Team.
