A motorcyclist died after being struck by a vehicle at the intersection of Mullican Street and the Highway 70s Bypass on Friday morning.Nelson Vogel, 66, was traveling toward downtown on Mullican Street on a Honda street-legal dirt bike. After entering the intersection, he collided with the side of a white Chevrolet pickup driven by Mary Hill, 59, traveling toward the mall on the bypass.According to McMinnville Police Department officer Chuck Taylor, Hill entered the intersection even though she had the red light.“Hill said she ran the red light because she thought she didn’t have enough time to stop,” said Taylor. “Vogel had the green light.”While Hill was ticketed for running a red light, Vogel was transported from the scene by ambulance and airlifted by LifeFlight to Erlanger where he later died from his injuries.“His condition was serious,” said Taylor.
