"A 20-year-old El Paso man died Thursday night from injuries he received crashing a motorcycle his parents say he'd been driving only a couple of months. Myles Anderson, a University of Texas at El Paso student, on Thursday afternoon was driving a black 2006 Suzuki motorcycle east on Interstate 10 near Walnut Street in Central El Paso, police said.
As traffic slowed, Anderson's cycle struck the back of a black 2006 Jaguar, police said. He was taken to Thomason Hospital, where he later died. Anderson, a graduate of Cathedral High School and a resident of a small apartment complex at 700 Mundy, was an aspiring photographer who was studying at UTEP to eventually work as a museum curator, family members said.
He will be cremated and memorialized Sunday at a private ceremony, his parents said. No charges are expected to be filed as a result of the accident. Anderson's death was the 39th traffic death of the year in the city, compared with 45 at this time last year, police said. It was also the eighth motorcyclist's death of the year, compared with nine at this time last year."
