John Konowich, 57, killed, Catherine Lumbrazo, 38, injured after motorcycle accident on Lenox Ave. in Oneida, NY

A 57-year-old Canastota man is dead after he collided with an SUV while riding a motorcycle Friday afternoon. The driver of the motorcycle, John P. Konowich, of North Court Street, was riding east on Lenox Avenue around 3:26 p.m., when an SUV pulled in front of the motorcycle, causing Konowich to hit the front driver's side of the vehicle. Konowich was ejected from the motorcycle and was taken by Vinall Ambulance to St. Elizabeth's Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. The driver of the Toyota SUV that Konowich hit, 38-year-old Catherine Lumbrazo, of Creek Road, Oneida, was stopped at a stop sign on Stone Street. A large work van was also driving east on Lenox Avenue and was making a right turn onto Stone Street at the time of the crash. Lumbrazo attempted to make a left turn onto Lenox Avenue and failed to see the motorcyclist approaching. Lumbrazo was ticketed for failing to yield the right of way at a stop sign while making a left turn. She was treated on the scene for cuts she suffered from broken glass.
