The 21-year-old man died in the collision with a GMC Yukon around 11:18 a.m. on August 26th.
The report by the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office identified the motorcyclist.
The young man was riding his motorcycle eastbound on Madison Avenue heading toward the intersection with Blue Oak Drive.
Meanwhile, the woman driving the SUV with two minor passengers aboard made a left-hand turn into the path of the motorcyclist.
