The preliminary investigation shows a car driven by 64-year-old Steven Allison of Covington pulled out from the stop sign and into the path of the eastbound motorcycle operated by 43-year-old Jeremy Dean Monroe of Piqua, according to the Miami County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said Monroe was not wearing a helmet and he suffered a severe head injury. CareFlight responded and flew him to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton.
Allison was taken to Upper Valley Medical Center near Troy to be checked, and his wife was a passenger in the car but was not injured, according to the sheriff’s office.
Crash reconstructionists from the sheriff’s office are investigating the collision.
