Carlos Ivan Diaz-Franco, 31, was thrown from his motorcycle after the collision on the ICC between Georgia Avenue and Shady Grove Road around 7:30, Thursday, July 14, say Montgomery County police.

Diaz-Franco was thrown from the 2020 BMW S 1000 RR motorcycle that landed in the eastbound lanes, and was pronounced dead on scene.

Both lanes of the ICC were shut down during the investigation.

The officer was transported to an area hospital with non life-threatening injuries and was later released.

Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed the collision to come forward.

The motorcycle was a red, white, and blue sport bike and it may have been traveling with a group of other motorcycles.

Anyone with information is asked to contact CRU detectives at 240-773-6620.
