Motorcyclist Dead In Multi-Vehicle Crash

FORT MYERS, FL. -- Jeffrey Greenough, 66 of Naples, Florida is dead after a crash Saturday night about 10:51 p.m. on U.S. 41 after being struck by another vehicle.

Robert James Morgan, 27 of Fort Myers, Florida was traveling south on U.S. 41 (State Road 45) approaching the intersection of Woodland Boulevard and College Parkway. Greenough on a 2002 Harley Davidson Road King was traveling north on U.S. 41 approaching the intersection of Woodland Boulevard and College Parkway.

Roberto Hernandez, 20 of Bonita Springs, Florida was traveling west on Woodland Boulevard at the intersection of U.S. 41 waiting for the traffic signal to cycle in order to proceed south.

Morgan failed to observe the motorcycle approaching the intersection and as a result attempted to make a left turn onto Woodland Boulevard. Consequently, the front-end portion of the motorcycle collided with the passenger-side portion of Morgan's vehicle. After the initial impact, Morgan's vehicle was re-directed and traveled through the center median located on Woodland Boulevard and collided with Hernandez'vehicle.

Morgan had minor injuries. The third vehicle's driver and passengers had no injuries. Charges are pending as is results of alcohol testing.
