Michigan State Police are investigating a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred on Saturday. Troopers say they were called to the scene on Red Arrow Highway near Territorial Road in Paw Paw Township around 2:40 p.m. 76-year-old Richard Setty of Kalamazoo had been westbound when he lost control of his motorcycle and was ejected. He was later pronounced dead at Bronson Hospital in Kalamazoo.

Police say they’re looking for the driver of a tan sedan reported to have been following closely behind the motorcycle when the crash happened. The sedan is described as an older model with four doors and some rust on the lower side of the passenger door. Police believe it may have played a role in the crash. The sedan proceeded westbound on Red Arrow after the crash. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Michigan State Police post in Paw Paw.
