A motorcyclist was killed in a crash with an SUV in Long Beach, authorities said Monday.

The 25-year-old Long Beach man died at the scene of the crash, which occurred about 4:40 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of Cherry Avenue and Bixby Road, according to the Long Beach Police Department. His name was withheld, pending notification of his relatives.

“Through their preliminary investigation, detectives learned a black Nissan Rogue being driven by a 55-year-old male resident of Long Beach was traveling northbound on Cherry Avenue and making a westbound turn onto Bixby Road,” police said in a statement.

“As the Nissan was turning, the decedent, riding a Suzuki motorcycle, was traveling southbound on the west service road of Cherry Avenue when he failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with the Nissan,” police said.

The Nissan driver, who was not injured, remained at the scene and cooperated with the investigation, police said. His name was not released.

“At this time, neither distracted driving nor impaired driving is believed to be a factor in the collision,” police said. “However, the investigation remains ongoing.”

Anyone with information on the crash was urged to call detectives at 562-570-7355, or Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS.
