A McKeesport man was killed Saturday after a motorcycle crash in Fayette County, Pennsylvania State Police said late Sunday.

David Lesko, 34, died after the crash around 6:30 p.m. on Morgantown Road in Springhill Township, police said.

Paramedics had rushed Lesko to J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, police said.

Two other vehicles were involved in the crash — a 2009 Ford Escape SUV and a 2015 GMC Sierra truck, police said. The drivers of those vehicles were not injured.

Police wrote “None used/Not applicable” under the safety equipment section of their crash report on Lesko.

The drivers of the two other vehicles were wearing lap and shoulder seatbelts, police said.

Springhill — a township of less than 3,000 residents — is about 1 mile north of the West Virginia border.

The Fayette County Coroner did not respond early Monday to a phone call seeking comment.
