Three Killed in Charity Motorcycle Ride

Published : Saturday, 11 Jul 2009, 9:05 PM EDT

CORSICANA, Texas - Three people were killed and three others injured Saturday morning when a pickup plowed head-on into a group of motorcycles during a charity ride.

Texas Department of Public Safety officials say the truck veered into the oncoming lane and struck two motorcycles before rolling over and hitting two more on a rural highway southwest of Corsicana.

Corsicana High School teacher Leslie McCluney, 34, was among the dead. She was a passenger with her father, 61-year-old Terry Nelson, who also was killed. The other rider killed was David Coley, 54. All three were from Corsicana.

The charity ride was a benefit for the Corsicana High drill team.

DPS officials say no charges have been filed. They say the incident is under investigation but it appears to have been an accident.
