A 66-year-old Finley man died after his motorcycle crossed paths with a Ford pickup in Lake County Tuesday afternoon, the CHP said.

The crash happened in the county’s unincorporated town of Finley at about 12:38 p.m. The motorcyclist, who wasn’t identified pending notification of next of kin, was riding a 2016 Harley Davidson east on Stone Drive when a westbound 2016 Ford F250, driven by Kenneth Lee Barr, 73, of Kelseyville, made a left turn in front of him, CHP said.

Barr, who was turning into a private driveway, was not injured in the collision.

The CHP doesn’t believe drugs or alcohol were involved in the crash.
