An initial OSHP investigation showed that a 60-year-old man identified as Lawrence Day drove a 2006 Honda Shadow motorcycle on CR-34.
He was going northwest on CR-34 when he went off the left side of the road, and “laid the motorcycle down,” OSHP said.
Medics transported Day to Miami Valley Hospital with serious injuries.
State troopers stated that he did not use any safety equipment, and alcohol is believed to be a factor in the crash.
The crash remains under investigation.
