On 05/18/08 at approximately 3:00 p.m., Dr. Jack Dunn, age 62, from Ventura, was riding his 2000 Harley Davidson southbound on SR-33, approaching Potrero Creek. For unknown reasons, Dunn drove onto the west dirt shoulder and sideswiped the metal guardrail. Dunn lost control of his Harley Davidson and the front tire struck a pothole on the dirt shoulder causing the rear of the motorcycle to lift up, ejecting Dunn. Dunn was thrown approximately 50 feet down a rock embankment.

Dunn succumbed to his injuries sustained in the traffic collision, including severe head trauma.
