(MITCHELL, IN) - A Fishers motorcycle rider was killed Friday night when a teen driver drove into his path causing the two to collide head-on.

Authorities say that 47-year-old Alan D. Atkins died at the scene, suffering head, chest and leg injuries.

Atkins was not in the area for the annual ABATE of Indiana Boogie near Springville, just out riding.

Nathan Hornaday was traveling west on U.S. 50 West when he began to turn across the eastbound traffic onto Cassidy Lane when the wreck occurred.
