Phoenix police detectives are investigating a collision that left a motorcycle rider dead Tuesday night near 91st Avenue and Osborn Road.
Officers arrived at the scene about 7:20 p.m. May 7 to find 21-year-old Pablo Villa Jr., who did not survive the crash and was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
The other vehicle involved remained at the crash location, according to a Phoenix Police Department release.
Detectives who took over the investigation said early information suggests that the vehicle involved in the collision was southbound on 91st Avenue making a left turn at Osborn Road when it was struck by the motorcycle, which was heading north 91st Avenue.
An investigation is continuing, but speed appears to be a factor in the collision, police said.
