The Tennessee Highway Patrol is asking for the public’s help in locating an SUV and driver that may be connected to a fatal motorcycle crash that happened on I-65 in Davidson County, Saturday morning, April 25, 2009. At approximately 8:51 a.m., 31 year-old Larry Ellison of Bean Station, Tennessee, was riding a 2004 Harley Davidson motorcycle southbound on I-65. Ellison was exiting on Harding Place when he was thrown off the motorcycle. He was transported to Vanderbilt Medical Center where he died at 5:13 a.m., Sunday, April 26, 2009. The THP is looking for a black SUV with red dealer tags. Witnesses say the SUV was driving erratically down I-65 and cut across two lanes of traffic before striking the motorcycle in the exit lane. The witnesses told investigators the SUV may have damage to the right rear. Witnesses say the driver of the SUV stopped momentarily then left the scene, heading west on Harding Place toward Franklin Pike. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Tennessee Highway Patrol at 615-741-2060. |
