BUTTE, Mont. (AP) - A 52-year-old Lost Creek man was killed and his female passenger injured in a motorcycle crash near Anaconda.

Anaconda-Deer Lodge County Coroner Gerry Thomas tells The Montana Standard (https://bit.ly/1oQKA1l ) that Charles Williams died in the crash on Friday evening.

The Montana Highway Patrol says a pickup truck was crossing Montana Highway 1 from a gravel road when the eastbound motorcycle hit the truck broadside. Williams died at the scene. His passenger, a 35-year-old woman from Anaconda, was unconscious when officers arrived. She was taken to the hospital.



Thomas says Williams was not wearing a helmet.
