Moses Lake man, 61, dies in motorcycle crash

By the Herald staff

WARDEN -- A 61-year-old Moses Lake man was killed Friday near Warden when his motorcycle drifted across the center line and hit a car head-on.

Dionisio Arriola was traveling eastbound on Highway 262 about eight miles west of Warden when the crash occurred about 2:25 p.m.

The car involved in the crash was driven by a 16-year-old Moses Lake male, who suffered lacerations and was treated at the scene. The car's driver was wearing a seat belt, and the motorcyclist was wearing a helmet.

The crash blocked traffic for about two hours.

Drugs and alcohol are not believed to have been involved in the crash. Criminal charges aren't likely to be filed.
