Washington motorcyclists die in Montana crash


BILLINGS, Mont. ? Two Washington state residents were killed and two others were injured in a motorcycle crash in eastern Montana.

The Montana Highway Patrol says a 57-year-old man and his 55-year-old female passenger were eastbound on U.S. Highway 12 in Rosebud County Tuesday afternoon when they struck a trailer being pulled by a motorcycle in front of them as the driver slowed down to pull over.

The Billings Gazette reports the victims, both from Ephrata, Wash., died at the scene. Their names have not been released.

The 63-year-old driver of the leading motorcycle and his 61-year-old female passenger were taken to the hospital in Forsyth. Both are from Ocean Park, Wash.

The patrol says none of the bikers were wearing helmets.

Canada's GDP rose in May

OTTAWA, July 31 (UPI) -- Canada's gross domestic product expanded by 0.2 percent in May, notching a fifth consecutive month of increases, Statistics Canada said Wednesday.

Growth was led by service industries, particularly retail and wholesale trades, the data agency said.

Government spending in education, health and public administration contributed to the gain. Real estate services and the hospitality industry, including food services, made gains, while transportation and warehousing declined in May.

Goods production fell 0.3 percent in the month, most of that attributed to declines in mining, quarrying and gas and oil extraction.

Production in manufacturing and agriculture expanded, while utilities posted declines, StatsCan said.
