Chicago, IL : A motorcyclist was killed and his passenger critically injured on April, Saturday 15th 2017

A motorcyclist was killed and his passenger critically injured after the motorcycle they were riding collided with another vehicle Saturday in Batavia, police said.

Police responded at 5:25 p.m. Saturday to the 1200 block of Wind Energy Pass, between Kirk and Raddant roads, on Batavia's south side.

Police said a man driving the motorcycle was pronounced dead on the scene. His female passenger was airlifted by a medical helicopter to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove, where she was listed in critical condition Sunday, officials said.
