An 18-year-old teenager, Shane Irwin, has been identified as the victim of a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred on the North Side last Thursday. According to FOX San Antonio, the crash happened just after 11 p.m. near Bulverde Creek and Evans Road, where Irwin collided with a vehicle driven by an elderly man.
The elderly driver, who was just off his shift at McDonald's, told police that the crash occurred shortly thereafter. He was taken to the hospital as a precaution. While the investigation is still ongoing, authorities have ruled that the incident was accidental and there is no suspicion of intoxication on the part of either Irwin or the elderly man, as reported by FOX San Antonio.
Shane Irwin was pronounced dead at the scene of the collision which involved his motorcycle and the elder motorist's vehicle. The specific dynamics of the crash and contributing factors remain under the purview of local authorities who are piecing together the evening's events.
