VERNAL — A motorcyclist died Tuesday night after his Harley-Davidson went off state Route 45 and he was thrown from the bike, the Utah Highway Patrol said.

Terrence Brown, 55, of Vernal, was riding north on the road about 5:30 p.m. when his motorcycle crossed the center line, troopers said. The bike went off the road and flipped.

Brown was taken to Ashley Regional Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.

Troopers still do not know what caused Brown to go off the road.
