MANKATO — A 20-year-old North Mankato man has died as a result of injuries
he received in a motorcycle crash Friday night.

Zachary Ryan Abdo lost control of his 2009 Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle and crashed on Raintree Road across from Heintz Toyota, which
is near the Victory Drive intersection, said Cmdr. Jeremy Clifton of the
Mankato Police Department. He said the crash was reported at about 11:45 p.m. The State Patrol is assisting with the investigation.

No other vehicles were involved and Abdo was wearing a helmet. There was no
reason to suspect alcohol was a factor, Clifton said.
