A man from southwestern Iowa is dead following a motorcycle accident early this morning in Pottawattamie County.
Council Bluffs Police say 29-year-old Jeffery Crane, of Council Bluffs, died in the crash that happened at around 2 AM on the Nebraska Avenue on-ramp to Interstate 29.
An investigation determined Crane’s motorcycle was northbound on the I-29 on ramp when he apparently lost control, causing the cycle to leave the road on the curve.
Crane, who was not wearing a helmet, suffered fatal injuries when he was thrown from machine during the accident.
Authorities say at this time it is unknown if speed or alcohol played a part in the accident.
