Two people riding a three-wheeled motorcycle were killed the evening of April 9 at an Apache Junction intersection by a vehicle suspected of running a red stop light, Apache Junction police said.

“The driver of the sedan was believed to be impaired at the time of the accident,” according to a release from AJPD.

Daniel Sitar, 67, and Valerie Lewis, 63, were killed in the accident that occurred about 6:30 p.m. at Ironwood Drive and Superstition Boulevard, police said.

Sitar and Lewis lived in unincorporated Maricopa County just west of the Apache Junction city limits.

According to the initial investigation, the three-wheeled motorcycle was traveling east on Superstition going through the intersection when a sedan traveling north on Ironwood ran a red light, hitting the motorcycle, police said.

The suspect in the accident, Robert Anderson, 42, of Litchfield Park, was treated at a local hospital for non-life threatening injuries, police said.
