ARLINGTON Collision investigation detectives are investigating a fatal motorbike crash that happened at approximately 4 p.m. July 29 on a dirt motocross track in the 22100 block of Sather Road in the Arlington area.

Troy Richard Boggs, a 19-year-old man from Monroe, was riding motorbikes with three other male teens on the private, rural property when he crashed. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The three other teens were on a different part of the track and didn't witness the crash.

The exact cause and manner of Boggs' death are still pending, according to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office. There is no additional information to release at this time.
