Tucson, AZ – Magdi A. Nafeh Killed in Motorcycle Wreck at Pantano Rd
Tucson, AZ (March 31, 2020) – A motorcyclist has passed away from his injuries after a collision on the east side last week.
Officers from the Tucson Police Department identified the motorcycle rider as 63-year-old Magdi A. Nafeh, who was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries after the incident on March 22 and died on March 28.
Authorities say that the crash happened near Pantano Road and Wrightstown Road and involved Nafeh’s motorcycle and an SUV. The driver of the SUV stopped immediately and remained at the scene for the investigation. A DUI Officer determined the driver was not impaired at the time of the collision and speed does not seem to be a factor at this time, though the investigation is ongoing.
Our deepest condolences go out to the family of Magdi A. Nafeh at this time.
