SIOUX FALLS — A Minnesota man killed after a crash on a Sioux Falls Interstate on-ramp has been identified by authorities.

The crash occurred shortly after 6 p.m. Sunday, May 11, on the 12th Street on-ramp to Interstate 29 northbound on the west side of Sioux Falls.

The South Dakota Highway Patrol said 44-year-old Derek Berry, of Zumbrota, Minnesota, was operating a Suzuki motorcycle when he entered the on-ramp to the northbound lanes of Interstate 29 at 12th Street, which features a sharp curve.

Troopers say Berry lost control of his bike on the curve and struck concrete barriers on both the east and west sides of the on-ramp, causing him to separate from his motorcycle.

Berry was taken to a Sioux Falls hospital where he died of his injuries.

No other vehicles were involved in the crash, though traffic was impacted for some time.

The South Dakota Highway Patrol continues to investigate the crash.

A South Dakota native, Hunter joined Forum Communications as a reporter for the Mitchell (S.D.) Republic in June 2021 and now works as a digital reporter for Forum News Service.
