Miami Beach, FL (August 15, 2019) - A motorcyclist is dead after colliding with a trolley in Miami Beach. The crash occurred around 11:00 p.m. on Tuesday, August 13th, at the intersection of 65th Street and Indian Creek Drive.

Police responded to the crash scene to investigate. According to Miami Beach Officer Ernesto Rodriguez, the motorcycle appeared to be traveling northbound when it crashed into the trolley that was traveling southbound. Police believe that the trolley was attempting to make a left-hand turn at the time of the accident. The motorcyclist was rushed to the trauma center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His identity has not been released, pending next-of-kin notification.
