Kamloops RCMP say a man in his 70s was killed after a Wednesday afternoon motorcycle crash in Knutsford.

Mounties say they were called to the crash on Highway 5A at Cardu Hill around 1:30 on Sept. 6.

RCMP spokesperson, Cpl. Crystal Evelyn says police arrived to find the motorcyclist being tended to by paramedics and other people who were providing first-aid.

She says the victim was taken to hospital with injuries that were believed to be non-life threatening at the time.

“The victim, a man in his 70s, sadly succumbed to his injuries later that night,” Evelyn said, noting police do not suspect criminality to be a factor in the crash.

The BC Coroners Service is also investigating the crash.
