Cowlitz County Coroner Dana Tucker has released the identity of the motorcyclist who died Sunday following a single-vehicle crash on Lewis River Road west of Yale.

The motorcyclist was Robert L. Jones, 54, of Vancouver.



Jones was killed in the accident where he lost control of his bike around 3 p.m., crossed into the southbound lane of Lewis River Road, and collided with the guardrail, a press release states. The collision caused him to be ejected down an embankment on the south side of the road, and he died from blunt-force traumatic injuries.
