A Seymour Johnson Air Force Base airman died Saturday in a motorcycle accident in Tucson, Ariz.

Staff Sgt. John M. Siggins, a 26-year-old member of the 4th Fighter Wing Equipment Maintenance Squadron, was on temporary assignment at Fort Huachuca, Ariz.

Tuscon police said Siggins was traveling west on his Yamaha motorcylce on West Grant Road when a Chevrolet turned in front of him. An investigation into the incident is under way, officials added.

Siggins had served in the Air Force for more than seven years before his death, and had been stationed at Seymour Johnson since 2000.

The Manvel, Texas, native is survived by his mother and brother.
