One dead, one badly injured in south Sacramento motorcycle crash, police say
A woman was killed and another person was seriously injured when their motorcycle collided with another vehicle Thursday evening in the Woodbine neighborhood of south Sacramento, police say.
The coroner’s office identified the victim as Shavonia Armstrong, 45.
Officials responded to a crash at 24th Street and Wah Avenue about 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Sacramento Police Department spokesman Officer Marcus Basquez said.
Armstrong was pronounced dead at the scene. The other victim was transported to a hospital with serious injuries, but is expected to survive, Basquez said.
Basquez could not verify as of Friday morning whether the other vehicle was a car or truck, and could not say whether Armstrong was the motorcyclist or passenger.
Police investigated the scene for a few hours, but no arrests were made, Basquez said.
