Collision Investigation Detectives are investigating a traffic collision that occurred on Feb. 10, 2026 which resulted in the death of a male adult.
At approximately 6:03 a.m., officers responded to the intersection of Anaheim Street and Linden Avenue regarding an injury traffic collision involving a vehicle and a motorcycle.
Upon arrival, officers located a male adult motorcyclist lying on the sidewalk. The driver of the other vehicle and officers rendered aid to the motorcyclist. Long Beach Fire Department personnel responded to the scene and transported the motorcyclist to a local hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries.
The preliminary investigation indicates the motorcyclist was travelling eastbound on Anaheim Street when he entered the intersection with Linden Avenue. As the motorcyclist entered the intersection, a white 2020 Mercedes-Benz made a left turn from westbound Anaheim Street to southbound Linden Avenue, ahead of the motorcyclist. The motorcyclist collided with the Mercedes-Benz, and he was ejected from the motorcycle.
At this time, speed, impaired driving, and distracted driving are not believed to be factors in this collision.
The driver of the Mercedes-Benz remained on scene and cooperated with the investigation.
The identity of the decedent is being withheld pending notification of next of kin by the Los Angeles County Department of the Medical Examiner.
