Glendale, AZ – 2 Seriously Injured in Motorcycle Crash at 67th Ave
Glendale, AZ (October 30, 2019) – Two people were transported to a local area hospital after a motorcycle wreck on Tuesday.
According to authorities, the accident happened in the area of 67th Avenue and Glendale Avenue around 7:00 p.m. Officers from the Glendale Police Department say that the two injured victims were on a motorcycle. The motorcyclist and his passenger were traveling through the Glendale and 67th intersection when a van turned in front of them.
Neither the motorcyclist nor their passenger were wearing a helmet, a Glendale detective said. Glendale paramedics arrived on the scene to transport the two to an area hospital, where they remain in critical condition.
At this point, it’s not clear if impairment was a factor in this accident.
