21-year-old motorcyclist killed in I-5 crash near Columbia Blvd; speed and lane-splitting cited

A 21-year-old Battle Ground, Washington, motorcyclist Shea V. Heintz died in a crash on northbound I-5 at North Columbia Boulevard during heavy traffic. Investigators say the rider lane-splitted at speeds significantly faster than surrounding traffic, and collided with a sedan before hitting a tractor-trailer; speed and unlawful passing are believed factors. Northbound I-5 was closed between North Lombard Street and North Columbia Boulevard for a Major Crash Team investigation. The involved driver stayed at the scene and cooperated; no arrests or citations have been issued. Police urge anyone with information to submit tips (case No. 26-177125).
