Shreveport police say 50-year-old Matthew Kelly of Bossier City died after a collision between his Harley-Davidson motorcycle and a Honda Civic.

Preliminary information suggested Kelly and his passenger, 50-year-old Betty Greer, also of Bossier, were traveling southbound on the I-49 on-ramp from I-20, when Kelly reportedly struck a rear section of the Civic.

Kelly and Greer were thrown from the motorcycle. Both were taken to University Health, where Kelly later died from his injuries. Greer remains hospitalized in critical condition.

The Civic driver, 47-year-old Debbie Holden of Natchitoches, wasn't injured. Toxicology samples have been sent in, as required by state law.

Police are still investigating what caused the crash.
