An El Paso man riding a motorcycle died after he failed to yield the right of way and was hit by another vehicle, authorities said.
William Page, 67, was riding a 2014 Harley Davidson FXD about 8:55 p.m. on Saturday, March 28, in the 11800 block of Pellicano Drive when he attempted to make a left turn onto Zaragoza Road, El Paso Police Department spokesman Officer Adrian Cisneros said in a news release.
Page failed to yield the right-of-way to the Cadillac Escalade, attempted to make the left turn and was hit by the Cadillac, the news release states.
He was taken to a hospital, where he died from the injuries he suffered in the crash. No other injuries were reported. The crash is being investigated by the El Paso Police Department’s Special Traffic Investigations unit.
This is the 12th traffic-related death in the El Paso city limits in 2026, compared to 16 at this same time last year.
