SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) -- A motorcyclist was killed early Sunday morning in a crash in San Francisco's Sunset District, police said.

The victim slid under a parked car and was pronounced dead by fire department paramedics who responded to the crash, Esparza said.

It has not been determined if drugs or alcohol were factors in the crash.
