Motorcyclist Killed on Freeway Identified

A motorcyclist who fell off his bike and was run over by a big-rig was identified by coroner’s officials Wednesday as John Kennedy of Huntington Beach.

Kennedy, 34, was driving between lanes in the rain on the Santa Ana Freeway just before 4:30 p.m. Tuesday when he clipped the right rear of a pickup truck and fell into the next lane, authorities said. He was run over by a big rig and died at the scene.
