Authorities identified 28-year-old Sharly Thao, from San Marcos, as the man who lost his life after a crash Sunday near the U.S.-Mexico border.
The fatal motorcycle collision took place at around 10:30 a.m. on State Route 94. The incident occurred near Volmer Lane, between the communities of Potrero and Campo. The investigation reports showed that Sharly Thao was traveling east with other motorcyclists when he failed to navigate a curve, veered off the road, struck the south curb and then hit two traffic signs and an embankment.
Due to the impact, Thao was thrown from his motorcycle, and he died before he could be transported to a hospital. Alcohol and drugs were not believed to be involved in the accident. No further details are available.
An investigation is ongoing.
