A Nebraska man was injured during a motorcycle accident Tuesday evening, in Pottawattamie County. The Iowa State Patrol says 52-year old Thomas Graser, of Omaha, was flown by LifeNet helicopter from the scene of the crash on Interstate 680 eastbound to the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. The accident happened at around 7:30-p.m. near the 17-mile marker, or about 4-miles west of the Beebeetown Exit, as Graser was driving a 2007 Harley Davidson.

Officials say for reasons unknown, the cycle went out of control and entered the median before crashing. The accident remains under investigation.
