A 38-year-old Waikoloa man suffered severe injuries following a two vehicle collision on Thursday (May 16) at the intersection of Waikoloa Road and Uluwehi Street. 

The 38-year-old male victim has been identified as Jessie Lee Stacy.

Responding to a 5:16 p.m. call, police determined that a white 2018 Nissan Altima being operated by a 61-year-old California man was making a left turn from Waikoloa Road onto Uluwehi Street when it collided with a westbound  blue 2001 Harley-Davidson motorcycle.  The 38-year-old male operator of the motorcycle was transported to the North Hawaiʻi Community Hospital where he was listed in critical condition.  He was later transported to the Queens Medical Center on Oahu for further treatment.

The driver of the Nissan, a 61-year-old male, and a 60-year-old female passenger, were not injured in the collision.

Police do not believe speed or alcohol are factors in the collision. 

The Traffic Enforcement Unit has initiated a Negligent Injury investigation and is asking for anyone who may have witnessed the accident to contact Officer Jason Foxworthy at 326-4646, ext. 229.
