Third motorcycle crash in less than a week slows Lincoln traffic Tuesday morning

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — An investigation is underway Tuesday morning following a motorcycle crash in Lincoln.

It happened near South 23rd and South Streets just before 7 a.m.

Emergency responders blocked off a lane as they checked out the motorcyclist.

Right now it’s not clear what led up to the wreck or if anyone was injured.  The motorcycle has since been towed away.

Tuesday’s crash comes just days after two deadly collisions involving motorcycles.

Lincoln Police say 30-year-old was killed following a crash with a pickup truck on Friday.

Later that same night a 25-year-old motorcyclist died after hitting the back of another vehicle on I-180, according to Nebraska State Patrol.
