A motorcyclist died early Tuesday in Kailua after he crashed into a telephone pole and then concrete wall.

The incident happened a little past midnight near Oneawa and Manono streets. Police said the man, a Marine from Marine Corps Base Hawaii, was heading north on Oneawa when he lost control of his 2008 Suzuki GSX-R 1000.
Police said speed may have been a factor but it is unknown if drugs or alcohol played a role. The man, 24, was wearing a helmet and there were no other vehicles involved.
City emergency services spokesman Bryan Cheplic said paramedics pronounced the man dead at 12:34 a.m.
