Lincoln Police have arrested an 18 year old woman in connection with a deadly motorcycle crash at 35th and Cornhusker Highway on August 29th. LPD Captain Todd Kocian says Alexis Kelly was driving eastbound on Cornhusker and was turning northbound onto North 35th Street when her vehicle was struck by a westbound motorcycle.
The driver of the motorcycle, 28-year-old Pierce White of Lincoln, died at the scene. “At the time, officers observed signs of impairment
and a Drug Recognition Exam was conducted,” Kocian says. “Toxicology reports later confirmed the presence of marijuana.”
Kelly was arrested for Motor Vehicle Homicide with a DUI, which is a felony.
