A motorcyclist was killed Tuesday morning in a three-vehicle crash in Douglas County, authorities said.
The motorcycle was northbound on Ga. 5 shortly after 9:30 a.m. when it struck the rear of a 2005 Chevrolet Equinox that had stopped near Westview Street and was waiting to make a left turn, according to the Georgia State Patrol.
After hitting the Chevrolet, the motorcycle traveled into the southbound lane and hit a 2003 Dodge Ram pickup truck head-on.
The operator of the motorcycle died at the scene. The other two drivers were uninjured.
The motorcyclist’s name was being withheld until relatives could be notified.
