Flaming was westbound on a 2002 Harley-Davidson about 3:25 p.m., when for unknown reasons he drove from the right lane across to the left lane of traffic and crashed into the median. Flaming crashed into a traffic sign support and the motorcycle overturned, ISP said. It was not known if he was wearing a helmet, or if alcohol was a factor in the crash.
