Clovis man, 20, suffers fatal injuries in a Fresno County motorcycle crash

A 20-year-old Clovis man was killed Saturday morning when he crashed while driving a motorcycle on Highway 168 in Fresno County, the California Highway Patrol said.

He was identified by the Fresno County Coroner’s Office as Dustin Leston.

Leston was riding his Triumph motorcycle about 8:15 a.m. westbound on the highway and approaching Big Dry Creek, west of Indian Camp Road, according to the CHP.

Leston moved toward the right-hand shoulder, striking a guardrail. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The crash remains under investigation, but the CHP said it did not appear alcohol or drugs were a factor.
