A Cleveland County motorcyclist was killed Sunday morning when his bike ran into an oncoming vehicle north of Morganton, according to the N.C. Highway Patrol.
Jerry Glenn Watkins, 46, of Shelby was driving his motorcycle northbound on N.C. 181 about 12 miles outside of Morganton at about 10:20 a.m. His motorcycle crossed the center line and crashed head-on into a vehicle headed south.
One person in the other vehicle was injured in the crash. Alcohol was not a factor in the collision, authorities said.
