According to the report, Wurmel was riding a 2000 Harley Davidson motorcycle and he suffered blunt force injuries in the accident which were a direct cause of death.
Tests to determine if alcohol or other substances were a factor have not been completed as yet. The accident was reported to 911 just after 3:00 AM.
