THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

A Blendon Township man was killed this morning in a motorcycle crash near his home on the Northeast Side.

Robert W. Wilson, 41, was driving east when his motorcycle failed to negotiate a curve on Central College Road and crashed into a field east of Lee Road, according to the Franklin County sheriff's office.

Wilson, who was wearing a helmet, was pronounced dead at the scene at 9:44 a.m. by Westerville paramedics, deputies said. Excessive speed appears to be a factor in the wreck, deputies said.
