(December 2) The Aurora Police Traffic Section is investigating a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred in north east Aurora. 

On Thursday, December 2, 2021, at approximately 5:37 p.m., Aurora Police responded to a report of a crash where a motorcycle collided with a silver Jeep in the area of East 6th Avenue and North Harvest Road.

The Aurora Police Traffic Section responded to the scene and is handling the investigation of this crash. They will be looking into whether or not alcohol, drugs, and/or speed were contributing factors. This remains an active investigation, and no charges have been filed at this time.

The identification of the driver is not being released at this time. The Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office will release it once he has been positively identified and next of kin have been notified.

We ask anyone who may have witnessed this crash or has dash-camera footage of the crash and has not yet spoken to police to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720.913.7867. By using Crime Stoppers, tipster can remain anonymous and are eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
