Authorities identified 21-year-old Alexander Humphrey, of Franklin, as the man who lost his life following a traffic collision on July 21 in South Knoxville.
The fatal motorcycle crash took place on Chapman Highway. According to the investigation reports, the motorcycle rolled after a car pulled out in front of him and it was initially unknown if the motorcycle made contact with the other vehicle.
Authorities are trying to speak with a driver of a gold/champagne-colored Chevy Suburban thought to be a model manufactured between 2008 and 2014 who might have witnessed the crash. A witness informed the officers that the vehicle had dark wheels and a loud exhaust.
Officers believe that the driver might have been struck by the motorcycle after the collision. The Chevy Suburban might have right-rear damage and was last seen going south on Chapman Highway at about 10:15 p.m. No further details were provided.
The incident remains under review.
