An 82-year-old motorcyclist was killed Tuesday in Madison Heights after his vehicle was struck by an SUV in Madison Heights, police said.

According to Lt. David Koehler of the Madison Heights Police Department, the crash happened at around 2 p.m. on John R Road near Ajax Drive. Officers subsequently determined the SUV driver, a 79-year-old woman, was turning left from southbound John R onto a private drive and struck the motorcycle headed northbound on John R.

The motorcyclist, Daniel Conrad of Algonac, was transported to Henry Ford Hospital in Madison Heights where he was pronounced dead.

Koehler said the SUV driver was cooperating with the investigation and alcohol doesn’t appear to have been a factor in the crash.
