OAKWOOD, IL – A multi-vehicle collision on I-74 near Oakwood Saturday night claimed the life of a motorcyclist from Danville.

According to a report by The News-Gazette, a 24-year-old man was heading east when his motorcycle hit a pothole, throwing him onto the interstate.

An unknown vehicle following directly behind Lovell was able to quickly maneuver around him. However, a second vehicle, driven by a 56-year-old woman, could not swerve out of the way in time and struck him.

Lovell was rushed to a local hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries a short time later. The other driver involved was reportedly unhurt.
