A man is dead after crashing his motorcycle, last night, in downtown Edmonton.

The destruction happened just before 9:00 p.m. along Bellamy Hill. Witnesses told police that two motorcycles were traveling up the hill when one driver lost control on a curve.

The injured man was rushed to hospital, but later died. His identity has not been released.  

Police say they do not believe speed or alcohol were factors in the incident. Investigators are hoping to speak to the second motorcycle driver who left the scene before emergency crews arrived.
