Motorcyclist killed in crash is named

A motorcyclist who was one of two men who died in a collision on Kamehameha Highway under the airport viaduct last week has been identified as Bryan Allen Delvin, 24, of Honolulu. The Honolulu Medical Examiner's Office said Delvin, a medic at Tripler Army Medical Center, died of multiple blunt force injury.

Police said that at about 12:45 a.m. Wednesday Delvin was Ewa-bound on Kamehameha Highway at a high rate of speed when he hit the passenger side of a sedan that was making a left turn into Camp Catlin Road. The sedan, driven by 35-year-old Gregg Gurtiza of Salt Lake, had the green light, police said. Gurtiza, a guard at the Federal Detention Center nearby, was driving home after working a double shift, his family said.

Police said the motorcycle was going so fast that the force of the impact caused the sedan to overturn. Both Delvin and Gurtiza died at the scene.
