An Oakdale teen was killed Saturday afternoon when he crashed his motorcycle on Highway 132/Yosemite Boulevard east of Roberts Ferry, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The teen was identified by the Stanislaus County Coroner’s Office as 19-year-old Dustin Pace.
The crash was reported at about 2:25 p.m. The rider of a 2006 Suzuki was eastbound when he tried to make a left turn onto Crabtree Road but lost control and struck a barbed-wire fence, a CHP release says.
Pace was thrown from his motorcycle and came to rest a short distance away. Though wearing a helmet, he died at the scene.
It had not been determined if alcohol or drugs factored in the crash, the CHP reported.
