A 42-year-old man suffered life-threatening burn injuries when his motorcycle rear-ended a vehicle in Ocean Beach and caught fire while his passenger was ejected and seriously injured Tuesday afternoon, San Diego police said.
The collision happened shortly after 4:35 p.m. when the motorcyclist, who was heading west on Voltaire Street, ran into the back of a Honda CRV stopped at a stop sign at Bacon Street, police said.
The BMW motorcycle caught fire, and the rider was severely burned. His 38-year-old passenger was ejected off the bike and suffered an open pelvic fracture and a large laceration to her scalp.
DUI may have been a factor in the collision, police said.
The 49-year-old driver of the Honda complained of pain in his back after the crash, police said. 10News , San Diego U-T
