Officer Bradshaw, who provided additional information, said the motorcyclist was traveling northbound, lost control, and crashed.
Just before 11 p.m., officials began measuring the crash site from E. 4th St. Officer Bradshaw explained that they are measuring for "precautionary" measures.
Because the crash investigation is in the preliminary stages, no further information is available.
