Fox Lake man killed in motorcycle crash

A 65-year-old Fox Lake man was killed Sunday morning after his motorcycle collided with a minivan in northern McHenry County, officials said.

David Stoll was pronounced dead at 11:08 a.m. at Centegra Medical Center - McHenry, about 90 minutes after the crash at Route 173 and Winn Road in Spring Grove.

According to the McHenry County coroner's office, Stoll was riding behind the minivan westbound on Route 173 at about 9:27 a.m. Sunday when, in an attempt to avoid a rear-end collision, he swerved around the vehicle and into the oncoming lane of traffic. He laid his motorcycle on its side after the maneuver, and was struck by the rear right tire of the minivan as it turned left at the intersection, officials said.

Stoll died as a result of multiple injuries to his chest and body, according to the coroner's office. Toxicology is pending.

The crash remains under investigation by the Spring Grove Police Department.
