(KAIR)--A California man who died this week in a motorcycle crash is being remembered by friends as a former student in Atchison.
According to Facebook posts made by former classmates, 44-year-old Jason Alexander Shirley was a member of the Atchison High School class of 1990.
Victor Valley News is reporting that Shirley, a resident of Oak Hills, California, died Monday night.
The newspaper's website, citing the California Highway Patrol, says he was killed when his motorcycle struck a left-turning Honda Pilot, causing Shirley to be ejected. He was then struck by a Ford pickup truck as he lay in the roadway.
Funeral arrangements aren't immediately available.
Local residents, in their Facebook posts, are recalling the time they knew Shirley, and are offering prayers to his family.
