CRAWFORD COUNTY, ARKANSAS, Ark. — One person is dead, and another is injured after a motorcycle crash in Crawford County, according to a crash report by the Arkansas Department of Public Safety.

Officials say a Harley Davidson Trike was being driven by 52-year-old Brian Eugene Gustin, with 34-year-old Jennifer Elizabeth Gustin as a passenger. Both victims were from Aurora Missouri. 

The report states the driver experienced a medical issue that caused him to lose consciousness and control of the vehicle. The trike then veered off the right lane, and hit "several small trees as it rolled down a concrete ditch," until hitting "a steep embankment," ejecting both the driver and passenger. The trike continued to roll downwards according to the report, totaling 758 feet., according to the report.
