Marin County coroner’s officials Monday identified an Antioch woman killed April 25 in a motorcycle crash on Dillon Beach Road.

Julie Glassford, 43, who died in the 4:30 p.m. crash, had been riding with her boyfriend, Rick Dow, 53, also of Antioch on a brand new motorcycle. He lost control of the 2015 KTM 500 near Valley Ford Franklin School Road and the bike overturned, throwing the couple to the ground, according to the CHP.

CHP officers arrested Dow on suspicion of drunken driving in the fatal crash.

He initially was taken to a hospital for medical treatment of his injuries and was expected to be booked into the Marin County Jail following his release.
