(Prescott, Iowa) – A motorcycle accident Saturday afternoon in Adams County claimed the life of a man from Texas. According to the Iowa State Patrol, a 2000 Yamaha motorcycle operated by 25-year-old Tevin Takeo Wilson, of Amarillo, TX, was traveling westbound on 180th Street, between Redwood and Quince Avenues, when for reasons unknown, the machine began to wobble and cause Wilson to lose control.

When the cycle struck the barrier face of the Mt. Zion Branch Bridge, Wilson was ejected over the barrier and landed on the rocks below, as the motorcycle continued to slide westbound. The accident happened a little after 2-p.m., Saturday.

Wilson died at the scene. His body was transported to the State Medical Examiner’s Office.
