ELKHART COUNTY, Ind. -- Two people were killed Wednesday afternoon in Elkhart County when a motorcycle collided with a minivan on C.R. 18, just west of C.R. 117.

Authorities say a 2011 Chrysler Town and Country was being driven east on C.R. 18 by 31-year-old Yenis V Rodriguez Argueta, of Elkhart. He was attempting to turn north into a private drive west of C.R. 117 when a 2003 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Classic was in the opposite lane of C.R. 18, heading west around 2:56 p.m. on March 12.

"[The Chrysler] turned left in front of [the Harley], failing to yield the right of way," authorities said. [The Harley] was laid down but continued west and struck [the Chrysler]."

The driver of the motorcycle was identified 41-year-old Jason E Bleiler, of Goshen, and his passenger was identified as 38-year-old Crystal Woolums, of Leesburg, Ind. 

Both were pronounced dead at the scene. 

Authorities say neither was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash. 

Yenis Rodriguez Argueta and his passenger were unharmed. 

Enforcement action is pending the results of the crash investigation.
