An Auburn man has died and a sheriff’s deputy was injured after a police chase ended in a crash in Bowling Green Tuesday.
Kentucky State Police say in a statement that the Warren County Sheriff’s Office notified them that a deputy tried to stop a motorcycle driven by 23-year-old Alexander Meador.
Chief Deputy Maj. Tommy Smith says the motorcycle was speeding and deputies couldn’t keep up.
KSP Post 3 spokesman B.J. Eaton says the pursuit continued until Meador collided at an intersection with a marked sheriff’s office SUV driven by Deputy Brian Wise.
Eaton says Meador was airlifted to a hospital, where he died. Wise was taken to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
The crash remains under investigation by the Kentucky State Police.
