The motorcyclist was pronounced deceased at the scene. The truck driver was uninjured and tested by a State Police Drug Recognition Expert, showing no signs of impairment. No citations were issued. The names of those involved in the accident have not been released.
The State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit is assisting with the ongoing investigation. Interstate 690 eastbound was closed for several hours while the scene was processed.
