A 35-year-old man was killed in a motorcycle crash on Stoney Trail.
Calgary police say neither speed nor impairment are believed to be factors in a deadly motorcycle crash on Thursday.
Emergency crews responded to the eastbound lanes of Stoney Trail near Sarcee Trail N.W. just before 6 p.m. for a two-vehicle crash.
Police say both vehicles involved – a GMC Sierra pickup truck with a utility trailer and a red Ducati 959 Panigale motorcycle – were eastbound at the time.

The motorcycle and rider were knocked down, coming to a rest near the guardrails in the centre median.
The motorcyclist, a 35-year-old man, suffered serious, life-threatening injuries.
He was taken to hospital where he later died.
The driver of the pickup truck wasn't injured.
Anyone who witnessed the crash or who has dash-cam footage is asked to call police at 403-266-1234.

RCMP launch secondary search in Battlefords for Ashley Morin
WATCH: RCMP will be searching waterways in the Battlefords area for clues into the 2018 disappearances of Sask. woman. The Saskatchewan RCMP says it has concluded an initial river search for signs of Ashley Morin, but found no evidence yet to indicate what happened to the missing woman. In an update sent Friday afternoon, a spokesperson with the RCMP said investigators have launched a secondary search in a remote area of the Battlefords river system. Morin was 31 years old when she was last seen in July of 2018 in North Battleford. Police believe she was the victim of a homicide. On June 16, RCMP announced that they will continue the investigation by conducting searches of rivers and riverbanks in the area throughout the week. 'The initial river search concluded yesterday afternoon. Today, investigators are conducting a secondary search in a remote area of the Battlefords river system; that search is expected to conclude tomorrow,' RCMP said in a statement Friday. RCMP say the historic case unit continues to investigate tips regarding Morin's disappearance. Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
