WA State Troopers Investigate Another Deadly Motorcycle Accident

Washington State Troopers are investigating the cause of another deadly motorcycle accident.

It happened on Saturday, West of Walla Walla on State Route 12.

Troopers say 60 year old Pasco man, Galen Hieb was going East on a Harley Davidson Motorcycle.  When he attempted to negotiate a curve, high winds pushed him into the path of a Honda going Westbound, which he side-swiped.

Hieb was ejected from his bike, and was hit by a Ford Pickup Truck in the West lanes.  He died at the scene.

The other drivers from Burbank and Benton City were not injured.
