LANDIS ó A Landis man was killed during the lunchtime hour today when his motorcycle collided with a car in the 400 block of Kimball Road.

Resuscitation efforts ended at 12:51 p.m. Emergency crews were first dispatched to the scene at 12:24 p.m., when CPR already was in progress.
Landis Police could not immediately release the victim’s name.
The woman driver of the car involved in the wreck near Old Stagecoach Road was transported to the hospital as a precaution.
Landis Fire Chief Reed Linn said the woman was visibly shaken, but her injuries were not serious.
