Rochester man killed in Monday evening motorcycle crash

A Rochester man was killed in a Monday motorcycle accident.

 

About 7:30 p.m., deputies with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to the area of 2602 S 500 E for a report of a single vehicle motorcycle accident. Emergency personnel arrived to find a male driver pinned under a motorcycle, and a damaged fence on the west side of the road.

 

Preliminary investigation by the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office found a 2010 Harley Davidson, driven by Jason McClish, 44, of Rochester, was traveling north on County Road 500 E, and left the roadway in a curve striking a fence.

 

The driver and sole occupant, McClish, succumbed to his injuries at the scene of the accident despite life saving measures provided by all responding agencies.

 

McClish was not wearing a helmet and alcohol and speed are believed to be factors in this crash.

 

The Fulton County Sheriff’s Office was assisted at the scene by the Rochester Fire Department, Lutheran EMS and the Akron Police Department.
