8:23 p.m., North Precinct and
Traffic Division officers respond-
ed to the report of a traffic crash
in the 6100 block of North Ma-
rine Drive involving a pick-up
truck driver and a motorcycle
rider. Officers and medical per-

the male adult motorcycle rider

has been identified as 20-year-old

several other motorcycle riders left

eastbound on Marine Drive. Ac-
cording to several witnesses, the
group of riders was traveling at
a high rate of speed, possibly ex-
ceeding 100 miles per hour, and
at least one rider was performing
a wheelie. Investigators were told

enthusiasts. The pick-up truck
driver, 24-year-old Robert Somes,
was accompanied by a female
passenger and they too had left
Kelley Point Park and were head-
ing eastbound on Marine Drive,
ahead of the group of motorcycle
riders. Somes did a U-turn on Ma-
rine Drive to head back westbound
when Terry crashed into the side of
Somes’ truck, striking the driver’s
door area. The impact of the crash
killed Terry and injured Somes.
The investigation is continuing
and no arrests or citations have
been issued. Upon completion of
the investigation, the Multnomah
County District Attorney’s Office
will review the case. The pick-up
truck driver is expected to survive
his injuries. On Monday evening,
a large group of people gathered at
the location of the crash for a vigil.
