The dark-colored BMW was gone by the time officers arrived. The motorcyclist — who police described as a man in his 30s — was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities are awaiting the notification of the biker’s next of kin before releasing his name.
No description of the BMW driver was immediately available.
