A motorcyclist who was apparently trying out a new motorcycle in a Fremont parking lot died after crashing into a tree over the weekend, police said.
Emergency responders found the motorcyclist down in the 6900 block of Dumbarton Circle at about 9:25 a.m. Sunday.
Fremont firefighters provided medical aid, but the person died.
It appears the motorcyclist, whose name was not released, was practicing riding a newly purchased motorcycle in a parking lot when they veered off and struck a tree, police said.
The cause is under investigation, but it's not believed that drug or alcohol factored in the collision.
The crash is Fremont's seventh fatal traffic collision this year.
