Bakersfield – The California Highway Patrol has identified the victim of last night’s fatal motorcycle accident in Bakersfield as 33-year-old Marcus Overton.

According to the CHP, Overton died at the scene of the accident after the 2004 CBR 600RR motorcycle that he was riding slammed into the median along Snow Road shortly after 9:30pm.

Accounts of witnesses indicate that the accident occurred when Overton tried passing traffic in the two-way-turn. That is when he hit the raised median, which threw him off the bike.

CHP officers also said that Overton was traveling in high speeds when the crash happened.

They also added that there was alcohol odor present around Overton but they haven’t concluded if it was a factor in the crash.
