A motorcyclist was pronounced dead at the scene of a multi-vehicle crash Wednesday afternoon on Pacheco Boulevard in Los Banos, according to the Los Banos Police Department.

A green 2002 Chevrolet Silverado driven by 55-year-old Luis Condor of Los Banos made a left turn onto Pacheco Boulevard from Maryland Avenue at about 12:26 p.m. when he crashed into a motorcycle travelling westbound on Pacheco Boulevard, police said. 

Andrea Hernandez, 26 of San Jose, was driving a tan 1996 Toyota Avalon westbound on Pacheco Boulevard when she also collided with Condor, officials said.
