A man was killed during a two-vehicle crash when a pickup truck allegedly turned in front of a motorcycle in the area, according to authorities.
Juan M. Villarreal, age 61, of Rhinebeck and New York City, was killed around 12:15 p.m., Thursday, May 20, during the crash on Route 9G at the intersection of Violet Hill Road in Rhinebeck, said Captain John Watterson of the Dutchess County Sheriff's Office.
A preliminary investigation has revealed that Villarreal was driving a 2019 Ducati motorcycle southbound on Route 9G approaching Violet Hill Road when a 2009 Ford Ranger pickup truck being operated by Jon H. Nansen, age 75, of Clinton Corners made a left-hand turn in front of the motorcycle, said Watterson.
