A 22-year-old man is dead after losing control of his motorcycle and smashing into a house in Sturgeon County Saturday night, police say.

Morinville RCMP say alcohol was not a factor. The man appears to have been speeding at the time, and was not wearing a helmet.

His identity is not being released at this time.

The crash happened a little more than an hour before RCMP in the same area responded to another report of a vehicle hitting a building.

At around 10:30 p.m., they were called out to a collision in Bon Accord, where a 71-year-old woman drove her car into the front of building.

Alcohol is not considered a factor in that crash either and the woman has been charged with careless driving.
