POCATELLO, Idaho (AP) - Idaho Falls police say a 39-year-old man died when he lost control of his motorcycle and struck a pole.

Bonneville County Coroner Rick Taylor says Preston Dixson died of multiple traumatic injuries to his body after the Thursday evening crash.

Idaho Falls officers say Dixson’s 32-year-old passenger was transported to a hospital for treatment for unspecified injuries.



They say neither was wearing a helmet and speed was a factor in the accident.
