The 29-year-old Victorville man riding a 2021 Harley Street Bob motorcycle suffered major injuries in a collision with a silver 2014 Dodge Durango about 8:12 p.m., police said.

Police say the motorcycle was traveling westbound on Palmdale Road, just east of Pearmain Street. Meanwhile, Leejon Tolliver came to a stop at the Pearmain Street and Palmdale Road intersection. The SUV was preparing to turn east onto Palmdale Road. Next, the SUV turned left onto Palmdale Road in front of the motorcyclist and the two vehicles collided.
