A Pennsylvania man was killed in an  I-70 motorcycle accident Sunday.

Just after 1:30 pm the Indiana State Police Putnamville Post responded to a single vehicle accident that claimed the life of one individual on Interstate 70 eastbound, near the thirty-seven mile marker.

Senior Trooper Yan Dravigne did the preliminary investigation and determined that Martin Henneman, 54, of Bradford, Pennsylvania, was driving a 1998 Honda motorcycle eastbound on Interstate 70.  Due to mechanical issues with the front tire, Henneman lost control, traveled off the south side of Interstate 70 and came to an abrupt stop off the roadway.  

Henneman was transported to the Putnam County Hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.  

Drugs and alcohol are not believed to be a contributing factor of the accident.

Assisting on scene were Cloverdale Fire Department, Putnam County EMS, Putnam County Coroner’s Office, Seniour’s Towing.
