Motorcyclist in Julian killed in crash

A 49-year-old motorcyclist was killed Sunday in a head-on crash in Julian, authorities said Monday.

The Jamul man was heading north on state Route 79 near KQ Ranch Road about 4:45 p.m. when his 2006 Yamaha R6 veered to the left over a set of double yellow lines and collided with an oncoming 2025 Chevrolet Silverado with a travel trailer attached, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The motorcyclist died at the scene of the accident, CHP Officer Jasmine Lopez said. His name was withheld pending family notification.

The driver of the pickup, a 37-year-old San Diego man, was uninjured.

Intoxication is not believed to have been a factor in the crash, Lopez said.
