The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the 19-year-old man killed this week in a motorcycle crash in the Armstrong Tunnel.

Bilol Egamberdiev of Glenshaw was driving on the inbound side of the tunnel in Pittsburgh’s Bluff neighborhood near Downtown just before 12:25 a.m. Tuesday. Investigators said he was traveling at a high speed and was unable to navigate the curve at the end of the tunnel.

Egamberdiev was taken in critical condition to a hospital, where he died of his injuries.

He graduated from Shaler Area High School in 2024.

“We are deeply saddened to hear about this tragic accident and extend sympathy to his family and friends,” said Superintendent Bryan O’Black.
