Fatal motorcycle wreck closes Broadway Tunnel

(11-23) 21:29 PST SAN FRANCISCO -- A fatal motorcycle crash has shut down San Francisco's Broadway Tunnel in both directions tonight, with no estimate on when it will reopen, police said.



Authorities started receiving calls about the crash shortly before 8 p.m., Officer Boaz Mariles said.

Witness reported a speeding motorcycle heading west in the tunnel before the crash, Mariles said.

Police were not releasing any information about the rider, except that he was male. The tunnel is closed in both directions as police treat the crash site as a crime scene.
