On Thursday, May 28, 2015 at around 11:30AM we received reports of a traffic collision involving a motorcycle and a vehicle on Moffett Blvd. just south of the Highway 85 overpass. The motorcycle rider, identified as a 25 year-old Gilroy man, was transported to a local hospital where he died due to injuries sustained from the collision.
The driver of the vehicle remained on scene and was cooperative with investigating officers.The cause of the collision remains under investigation, however, it does not appear either drugs or alcohol were a factor. Both lanes of southbound Moffett Blvd. remain closed at this time as officers complete their investigation.
The area highlighted in red was closed to through traffic while officers investigated the scene of the collision.
If you were a witness to the traffic collision, or have any additional information, please contact Lt. Mike Canfield at 650-903-6681 and reference case number 15-2895. Media inquiries can be be directed to Sgt. Saul Jaeger 650-903-6345 or policepio@mountainview.gov.
