Edward Price Killed, Tiffany Fuentes Injured in Motorcycle Accident at Buena Vista Street [Taft, CA]

Edward Price Dies in Taft Motorcycle Crash

 
TAFT, CA (December 3, 2020) — A 67-year-old Taft man died in a motorcycle accident at Buena Vista Street and Naylor Avenue.
 
According to the California Highway Patrol, paramedics airlifted Edward Price to Kern Medical after his motorcycle collided with a vehicle at the intersection.
 
Inferring from evidence at the scene, CHP officers believe Price was traveling southbound on Naylor Avenue at a high rate of speed. Upon entering the intersection, his motorcycle collided with a Honda Accord, driven by 22-year-old Dylan Leiter, of Taft.
 
Due to the force of the accident, Price flew off his motorcycle and so did his helmet.
 
Per reports, Tiffany Fuentes, a 23-year-old passenger riding with Leiter, sustained minor injuries, while Leiter evaded harm.
 
At this time, investigators have ruled out drugs and alcohol as factors in this collision; however, an investigation remains, and anyone with additional information should contact the CHP.

We would like to send our sincere sympathies and caring thoughts to the family and friends of Edward Price.
