 A semi truck struck a motorcycle Saturday morning near Stanberry at around 9:25 am, resulting in a fatal wreck. The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that a 1996 Kenworth T80 Truck driven by Ethan Roach (26) of St. Joseph and a 2003 Harley Davidson Motorcycle driven by Jay McGlothlin (61) of Stanberry were eastbound on Highway 136 three miles east of Stanberry. The motorcycle was traveling behind the semi and attempted to pass the semi as it was turning at the Route F intersection. The motorcycle struck the driver’s side of the semi, overturned, and came to rest off the east side of Route F. McGlothlin was killed in the wreck. Roach was not injured.
