Information from WYSH Radio

An Andersonville man died early Sunday morning when his motorcycle ran off the side of a wet roadway near Lake City.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol said the accident occurred shortly before 1 a.m. Sunday on Offutt Spur Road when 43-year-old Harold B. Hensley Jr. had been headed west on Offutt Spur.

The THP said he slid off the roadway while rounding a curve, and his motorcycle struck a tree and a fence before coming to rest. Hensley died despite wearing his helmet.

Troopers reported that it was unknown if drugs or alcohol were factors in the accident, but that standard blood tests have been requested.
