Motorcyclist killed in Sonoma County crash
Bay City News Service
Officers responded to a report of a collision involving a car and a motorcycle about 12:30 p.m. in the northbound lane of Highway 1 near the Fort Ross State Historic Park in Sonoma County.
Alexander Odgers-McGuire, 19, of Concord, was traveling south in a Toyota Rav4 at an unknown speed when his vehicle crossed over the double yellow lines into the northbound lane, officers said.
As his car entered the lane, it struck the left leg of 55-year-old Oakland resident Robert Rodgers, who was riding a Ducati motorcycle, officers said.
The Toyota continued traveling south in the northbound lane and collided head-on with two other motorcyclists, one ridden by Phillip Telesforo, 54, of Rohnert Park, and another ridden by an unidentified man, according to the CHP.
After hitting the motorcycles, the Toyota continued south before running off the roadway and coming to a rest about 35 feet from the highway.
CHP officers said one motorcyclist was declared dead at the scene, and Rodgers and Telesforo were taken by helicopter to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital with major injuries.
Odgers-McGuire suffered minor injuries and was transported by ambulance to Santa Rosa Memorial.
The cause of the collision is still under investigation, but CHP officers say they do not believe drugs and alcohol are a factor.
The identity of the man who died will be released pending notification of next of kin.
The roadway was cleared shortly after 7 p.m.
