A motorcyclist suffered life-threatening injuries after a crash with a pickup truck Wednesday night in the northwest Las Vegas Valley.

The crash occurred just before 5:10 p.m. at the intersection of North Michael Way and Seattle Slew Drive, north of West Smoke Ranch Road, according to a Metropolitan Police Department release.

Investigators say a 2020 Kawasaki KX250 was south on Michael when a 2023 Chevrolet Silverado attempted to turn left onto to Seattle Slew. The motorcyclist, a 30-year-old Las Vegas man, struck the right front side of the Chevrolet.

The rider was transported to the University Medical Center Trauma Center and was admitted with life-threatening injuries. The driver of the Chevrolet remained at the collision scene, cooperating with the investigation, and did not display any indicators of impairment.
