EVANSTON — A local 21-year-old man is dead after a June 15 motorcycle accident.  Zachery Worthing, of Evanston, was riding east on an I-80 service road, north of the highway near milepost 2.4, according to Wyoming Highway Patrol Public Information Officer Arron Healy.

Shortly before 5 p.m., Worthing was attempting to negotiate a left curve at a high rate of speed and was unable to remain in his lane. The crash caused Worthing to be thrown from his motorcycle, and he was pronounced deceased at Evanston Regional Hospital shortly thereafter.

The incident is currently under investigation, though speed has been initially cited as a possible contributing factor. 

“We send our condolences to the family and friends of [Zachery],” Healy said on behalf of the Wyoming Highway Patrol.
