The New Mexico State Police (NMSP) have concluded their investigation into a tragic crash that occurred on Tuesday afternoon. The incident took place on State Road 104 near mile marker 52, resulting in the death of a motorcyclist.

According to NMSP, the motorcycle was being driven by Damon Herbert, a 46-year-old individual. Herbert was traveling eastbound behind a pickup truck when the accident unfolded. As per reports, the truck driver began to slow down in preparation for making a left turn into a driveway.

In an attempt to overtake the slowing vehicle, Herbert maneuvered his motorcycle and entered the opposite travel lane heading westward just as the truck initiated its left turn. Tragically, this led to a sideswipe collision between both vehicles.

Regrettably, Damon Herbert succumbed to his injuries at the scene of the crash. Emergency services were promptly dispatched; however, they were unable to save his life.

Following thorough investigations conducted by NMSP officials, it has been determined that no further inquiries are required regarding this particular incident.

Our thoughts go out to Damon Herbert's family and loved ones during this difficult time as they come to terms with their loss.
