Fatal motorcycle accident snarls traffic on eastbound 105 Freeway

Although there was some rain overnight, police are not sure if the road was wet at the time of the accident. "I do believe there was some dew on the grass," said Alicia Smiley, a spokeswoman for LMPD. "He may have slid on the grass, once he made contact with that area. But right now I'm not for certain that a wet roadway was a factor in the accident." The man, whose name has not been released, was not wearing a helmet. Officers believe he may be in his 20s or 30s. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Toxicology reports are pending. No one inside the home was injured.

"With Chris, with that motorcycle, it was part of his freedom and part of his life and part of his person, that he enjoyed that ride and he enjoyed that freedom," paramedic Joshua Schuster said, adding Jennings would occasionally show up for SWAT training without his gear because he could not carry it on a motorcycle. Nonetheless, "He would not strike you as a hot dogger," paramedic Andrew Lusher said. "Never saw him ride without a helmet, he had gloves, he had what looked like a ballistic jacket." Jennings worked for Sunstar for about three years and was a SWAT medic for two years. Before that he worked for a fire department in his home state of Georgia. Services are pending, but fellow paramedics immediately shrouded their badges with black bands. Those who transported Jennings from the crash scene were immediately debriefed at the hospital and sent home for that shift and the next.
