SAN ANTONIO — A motorcyclist died early Monday morning after crashing along Loop 410. Investigators said he slammed into the back of a roadside assistance truck. The crash happened on the city's southwest side.
That truck had been blocking traffic because of a previous traffic accident at southwest Loop 410 and Old Pearsall Road, authorities said. The deadly crash happened around 2:30 a.m. and both the San Antonio Police Department and the San Antonio Fire Department responded.
The 59-year-old motorcyclist died at the scene. Police believe alcohol may have played a factor in the crash.
The roadside assistance operator was not injured during the crash.
