MIDTOWN - A motorcylist was killed in a collision with a Manhattan-bound bus near the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel, authorities said.

The accident unfolded just before the toll plaza on the New Jersey side at 12:15 p.m., according to a spokeswoman for the Port Authority.

It's not clear if the bus struck the biker or if the biker fell and became trapped underneath.

It is also not clear if there was any criminality in the incident.

A motorcyle accident in Februrary injured dozens after the biker collided with three different buses.
