Woman thrown from motorcycle falls six stories from Bush Turnpike ramp

By ASHLEIGH REUTER / The Dallas Morning News

A motorcyclist has been accused of reckless driving after his female passenger was thrown from the bike and fell 60 feet from a highway ramp onto a service road.


Lazaro Torres-Perez Leah Sanchez, 20, was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, said Sgt. Robert Bernard, of the Texas Department of Public Safety. The hospital said she was in critical condition this afternoon.

On Thursday evening, Sanchez was riding with Lazaro Torres-Perez, 21, of Sanger and heading west on Bush Turnpike when he attempted to pass a vehicle on the one-lane entrance ramp to the Dallas North Tollway, Bernard said.

The bike struck a concrete barrier and Sanchez was thrown from the motorcycle, falling about six stories. Bernard had initially said the woman fell 16 feet.

Sanchez was not wearing a helmet, and Torres-Perez was, Bernard said. Alcohol did not appear to be a factor, he said.

Torres-Perez was charged with reckless driving and has since been released on bond, according to a Collin County jail official. His bond information was not immediately available.
