KIMMELL, IN - A three-vehicle crash in Kimmel Friday evening left a motorcyclist dead.

The Indiana State Police say an Albion man was the fatal victim after he was hit by an SUV while driving on the shoulder of U.S. 33.

Reports indicate the deceased motorcyclist, identified as 36-year-old Shawn Patrick Loteckie, was driving a Harley Davidson past a line of stopped traffic on U.S. 33 southbound about 5 p.m. A Chevy Tahoe reportedly turning left onto County Road 200 from the northbound lanes hit the motorcycle.

Troopers say the impact caused Loteckie to fly off his bike and hit another car that was still stopped. The Noble County Coroner pronounced him dead at the scene.

The other two drivers were not injured.

ISP Investigators do not believe that alcohol was a factor in the crash.

The incident remains under investigation.
