OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – At least one person died last Sunday from injuries sustained in a solo crash along I-240 in southern Oklahoma City, reports News 9.

The incident happened in the afternoon on the westbound side of the interstate near the intersection with I-35, which is in the Valley Brook area.

It’s unclear what caused the accident, which police say killed a motorcyclist. They’ve not yet released the victim’s identity to the public.

Officials closed both sides of I-240 while authorities gathered evidence and emergency teams worked to clear the scene. The interstate re-opened by Sunday night.

A full investigation is underway. Our team of bloggers will release updates if we learn more about the victim or the factors that contributed to the crash.
