The Greene County Sheriff's Office released a statement Sunday morning regarding a Saturday night crash involving a pickup truck and motorcycle on S CR 800 W that left a 24-year-old Lyons man deceased at the scene.
The collision took place at approximately 11:30 p.m. on Saturday.
The driver of a Dodge Ram reported pulling out of an access road and turning left onto S County Road 800 W.
Due to the driver's view being partially blocked by vegetation, the motorcycle driven by Johnson and heading south at a high rate of speed was not visible to the truck's driver.
The truck driver reported stopping and trying to reverse, but said there was not time and the two vehicles collided.
Johnson was thrown from the motorcycle and died on scene.
The truck driver was uninjured.
The GCSO and the Indiana State Police continue to investigate the accident.
