According to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) on Tuesday, May 14 at around 8:30 p.m., officers were called to the intersection of Milton E. Proby Parkway and South Academy Boulevard about a single-vehicle crash.

When officers arrived they found the motorcycle and Morris dead on the scene. CSPD said the investigation showed Morris was traveling west on Milton E. Proby Pkwy, taking the off-ramp onto S. Academy Blvd. and failed to navigate the turn. The motorcycle hit the guardrail and Morris was ejected. Police believe speed to be a factor in the crash.

According to CSPD, this is the 19th traffic fatality in Colorado Springs in 2024, at this time last year there were 19.
