Emergency crews were called to the crash at around 3:00 P.M. on July 29th on eastbound Interstate 74 near the Knoxville off-ramp for Guymon, who was found about 20 feet away from his motorcycle.
Harwood says Guymon suffered multiple severe blunt-force trauma injuries, and it is unknown if Guymon was wearing a helmet.
Toxicology tests are pending and the crash remains under investigation by Illinois State Police.
