A motorcyclist was killed in an accident Wednesday night in Robertson County, Tennessee.
A report from the Tennessee Highway Patrol says 63-year old David Nicholson of Pleasant View was southbound on Highway 49 a few minutes after 9 p.m. and was slowing down when he was rear-ended by a car driven by 66-year old Ricky Hutson of Pleasant View.
Nicholson’s motorcycle skidded off the road and struck a tree and he was pronounced deceased from his injuries. Police say he was wearing a helmet.
Hutson sustained injuries in the crash, but the report doesn’t say if he required a trip to the hospital.
