Arkansas motorcyclist dies in 2-vehicle wreck; 2 in pickup hurt

A Springdale man was killed Tuesday after his motorcycle collided with a pickup that turned in front of him on Arkansas 264 in Benton County, Arkansas State Police said.

According to a state police report, 30-year-old Randy Mason was riding a Yamaha west on the state highway when a Ford F-150 headed the opposite way pulled in front of him into a driveway shortly after 7 p.m.

Mason was killed, and two people in the pickup — Jessica Enzor and Anthony Wade — were taken to Washington Regional Hospital in Fayetteville, the report said.

The report indicated that sun glare may have been a factor in the crash.

It was the 259th death on Arkansas roads in 2016, according to preliminary state police records.
