The North Dakota Highway Patrol said a 64-year-old Bismarck man died and a 29-year-old Bismarck woman was seriously injured when their motorcycle crashed Friday evening, October 23, on 119th Street Northeast, a quarter-mile south of Old Highway 10 east of Bismarck.
According to the Highway Patrol, the 2009 Harley-Davidson was traveling north when it failed to negotiate a curve, left the roadway, re-entered it, overturned and slid into a ditch. The man died at the scene, while the woman was taken to CHI St. Alexius in Bismarck with serious, non-life-threatening injuries, the agency said.
The Highway Patrol said neither person was wearing a helmet. The agency said the road was dry and the weather was clear at the time of the crash. The North Dakota State Patrol said the crash remains under investigation.
