Motorcyclist dies after colliding with SUV in northern Minnesota
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A 71-year-old motorcyclist died Saturday after colliding with an SUV in northern Minnesota.
The Minnesota State Patrol says the crash happened around 1:30 p.m. at the intersection of County Road 5 and Highway 37, roughly 10 miles east of Hibbing.
Investigators say a Harley Davidson motorcycle was traveling west on the highway when a Chevrolet Equinox pulled out in front of him. The SUV was at a stop sign and attempting to turn onto the highway's eastbound lanes.
The motorcyclist was identified as a man from Gilbert. His name has yet to be released.
No one in the SUV was hurt. Alcohol is not believed to be a factor in the crash.
