According to eye witness accounts, a late model Purple Chevrolet Impala heading northbound on East made an unsafe turn onto Pendegast directly in front of a man heading southbound on East St. on a motorcycle. "The car pulled in front of him," Jerry Howard, a Culligan driver who witnessed the accident, said. "The car just gunned it." According to Howard, the motorcyclist complained of pain in his left shoulder. "He hit pretty hard; about 30 to 35 right in the side of him. It was loud," Howard said.
