Hillsboro Man Dies In Motorcycle Crash West Of Sisters, Oregon State Police Say

BLACK BUTTE RANCH, OR — A Hillsboro man was killed Friday when his motorcycle collided with a Nissan sedan on Highway 20, west of Sisters near the entrance to Black Butte Ranch at milepost 93, according to Oregon State Police.

Andrew Hensley, 30, a 2005 Glencoe High School graduate, died while being transported to hospital July 28, police said. Hensley was driving his Kawasaki motorcycle eastbound on Highway 20 around 5 p.m. Friday when 20-year-old Los Angeles resident Walter Bonilla, who was traveling west, drifted his 2015 Nissan Altima into Hensley's lane.

When the two vehicles collided, Hensley was thrown from his motorcycle, police said, noting that Bonilla and his two passengers also received minor injuries.

Police say fatigue is being investigated as a contributing factor in the crash.

The July 28 crash marks the second time in two months someone has died in a traffic collision near milepost 93. KTVZ News in central Oregon reported a multi-vehicle crash in the same area on June 25 that left two people dead — a 28-year-old Bend man and an 80-year-old Eugene woman.

In that crash, police say the Bend man drifted across the centerline before colliding with the woman, killing them both and causing two other vehicles to also crash.
