Police Seek Witnesses To Fatal Motorcycle Crash

FORSYTH COUNTY, GA -- The Forsyth County Sheriff's Office is asking anyone who may have witnessed the Dec. 15 fatal two-vehicle collision to come forward with any information that could help investigators in the case.

The collision, which deputies responded to around 8:20 a.m. Friday, was reported along Atlanta Highway at Creamer Drive, which is just north of the county's border with the city of Milton. Anyone who may have seen the crash is asked to contact the agency by sending them a private message to its Facebook page.

A preliminary report released by the sheriff's office states a 2005 Triumph motorcycle was traveling northbound on Atlanta Highway towards its intersection with Creamer Drive while a 2017 Ford Escape was going southbound in the opposite direction. The motorcycle, the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office said, struck the Ford Escape on the passenger side rear door as the SUV was making a left turn.

The operator of the motorcycle was identified as 29-year-old Johns Creek resident James Rollins, who was transported to an area hospital where he died from his injuries, the sheriff's office added. The driver of the Ford Escape, 43-year-old Jody Robinson of Alpharetta, was not injured in the collision. The cause of the crash remains under investigation by the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office Traffic Specialist Unit.
