In a separate incident, a motorcyclist was killed after losing control and striking a barrier wall on the Loop 303 transition ramp to eastbound I-10. The Arizona Department of Public Safety is still piecing together the specifics of this accident as their investigation continues. "A motorcycle crash was reported on the SB Loop 303 near the Interstate 10 eastbound transition ramp around 3:30 a.m.," troopers told Arizona's Family.

Authorities had to temporarily shut down the transition ramp following the incident, but it was to open again shortly after 7:30 a.m. Commuters were asked to find alternate routes to avoid the area during the morning traffic surge.
