Police in Burbank are investigating a crash involving a sedan and an e-motorcycle. BURBANK, Calif. (KABC) -- A man was killed and a woman remains hospitalized after a crash involving an e-motorcycle in Burbank late Tuesday night, authorities said.
Officers responded to the intersection of Alameda Avenue and Hollywood Way around 11 p.m., where they found a man and a woman who had been ejected from the e-motorcycle.
The man died at a hospital, while the woman remains in critical condition.
The exact cause of the crash remains unclear, but police said preliminary information shows that "unsafe speed by the motorcyclist was likely a contributing factor."

The driver of the sedan remained at the scene, cooperated with investigators and did not display signs or symptoms of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol, according to police.
