Yuma, AZ – A multi-vehicle crash involving a motorcycle and an SUV left four people injured Saturday evening at an intersection in Yuma, according to the Yuma Police Department.
The injury collision occurred at the intersection of Pacific Avenue and 24th Street at approximately 7:43 p.m. on Saturday, February 7, 2026.
Preliminary investigation findings indicate that a 20-year-old man riding a Suzuki motorcycle was traveling southbound on Pacific Avenue when he collided with a Ford Flex.
