A motorcyclist involved in a two-vehicle crash yesterday
evening on West Cary Street has died.
At approximately 7:08 p.m., the driver of a 2014 KTM
Adventure Motorcycle was traveling at a high rate of speed east on West Cary
Street and operating the motorcycle in a reckless manner. A 2008 Ford F-150

was easing into the intersection when the motorcycle struck its front driver’s
side door.
Both drivers and a passenger in the pickup truck were taken
to the hospital for treatment. The motorcyclist, Nicholas P. Dillion, 38, of
