FRANKLIN COUNTY, Mo. – A man from Pacific was killed in a crash in Franklin County Saturday evening around 6 p.m.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol say the 45-year-old man was on a dirt bike going west on Missouri 100. At the same time, a white SUV was going east and attempted to turn left to get on to I-44 West.

The SUV’s front left side struck the dirt bike, sending it off the road. The bike hit a bridge rail and the rider was thrown from the overpass and landed on I-44 below him.

The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office and the Missouri State Highway Patrol Crash Team are investigating.
