At 9:49 a.m. Boise Police responded to a motorcycle vs vehicle crash at Fairview Ave and Mitchell St. The motorcycle rider, a male juvenile, passed away at the scene. The driver of the other vehicle was taken to a local hospital with injuries that appeared on scene to be not life-threatening.
A preliminary investigation shows that the motorcycle rider was traveling at a very high rate of speed westbound on Fairview before colliding with a truck in the intersection. The truck was traveling eastbound on Fairview and turning north onto Mitchell. The intersection was closed for several hours as BPD’s Violent Crimes Unit and Crash Reconstruction Team investigated the scene. The scene is expected to be cleared, and the roads reopened around 2:15 p.m.
The identity of the motorcycle rider will be released by the Ada County Coroner pending notification of next of kin. The investigation is ongoing.
