A sailor on a motorcycle died Sunday after hitting a guardrail on Nimitz Boulevard, authorities said. Francisco Solorzano, 21, was pronounced dead at 5:15 p.m., about 30 minutes after he lost control of his motorcycle on a curve and struck the rail just south of Evergreen Street, said coroner’s deputy Chuck Bolton. Solorzano, a native of Texas, was stationed at the Navy submarine base on Point Loma, Bolton said.
