El Paso police have released the identity of a motorcyclist involved in an accident Monday afternoon.
Luis Escalante, 52, died when the motorcycle he was riding struck a tractor-trailer.
The accident happened in the 1200 block of Pullman near Rojas Drive around 4 p.m in far east El Paso.
Traffic investigators said Escalante was heading northbound on the 1200 block of Pullman at the same time as Earvin Lancelin was driving a tractor-trailer south on Pullman.
