EL PASO COUNTY, COLO. -- The Colorado State Patrol is investigating a two-vehicle cash that left a Colorado Springs man dead.

The crash happened on Highway 115 in El Paso County.

Troopers said 74-year-old Dale Burkybile lost control of his SUV near milepost 34 and crossed into oncoming traffic, side-swiping a motorcycle.

The SUV continued off the road, hitting a rock embankment, then rolled.

Burkybile was transported to the hospital with serious injuries.

The driver of the motorcycle, 53-year-old Cedric Boehr, was transported to the hospital, where he later died.

Officials said speed is not a factor in the crash, but alcohol is still being investigated as a contributing factor.
