A driver who ran a red light early Thursday on the Tucson's south side fatally struck a motorcyclist, the Pima County Sheriff's Department says.
George Edward Doyle V., 61, was pronounced dead at the hospital after the crash that happened about 5:30 a.m. near the intersection of East Drexel and South Palo Verde roads, the department said in a news release.
The driver, Carlos Sandoval, 23, was criminally cited for causing physical injury and/or death by a moving violation after failing to stop at the red light, the department said. Speed is also believed to have been a factor, the news release said.
