A Gardnerville, Nevada man has died from injuries he received in a motorcycle crash on Kingsbury Grade/State Route 207 on Sunday, July 8, 2018.
Nevada Highway Patrol (NHP) troopers responded to the 2:45 p.m. crash and found 69-year-old Dana Edward Orgill on the ground. He was transported to Renown Hospital in Reno via a CalStar helicopter with serious injuries.
The preliminary investigation by NHP shows that Orgill was traveling eastbound when he failed to negotiate a left curve and drove off the highway onto the gravel shoulder area near Tramway Drive. His maroon 2007 Kawasaki motorcycle came to rest on its left side off of the highway.
Orgill succumbed to the injuries he sustained in the crash and passed away on Tuesday, July 10.
