Man, 64, killed in motorcycle crash on Pali Highway
A 64-year-old Kailua man died today after crashing a motorcycle on Pali Highway.
Police said the man was heading town-bound on the Pali at about 6:15 a.m. when he veered right, struck a curb, and was thrown from the motorcycle onto the roadway.
An Emergency Medical Services report said paramedics treated the man and took him to a hospital in extremely critical condition.
Police said the man died at the hospital. It was the 38th traffic fatality on Oahu this year, compared to 26 at this time last year.
The crash occurred on the Kailua side of the highway before the first tunnel, prompting police to close the town-bound lanes of the Pali for about two hours this morning.
