St. Cloud Times | WWW.SCTIMES.COM Latest news: Eden Valley man dies in motocycle crash

HINCKLEY — A 21-year-old Eden Valley man died Wednesday night after suffering massive head injuries when he fell from his motorcycle in Hinckley.

Johnathan Randal Arndt was pronounced dead at 8:47 p.m. Wednesday at Pines Medical Center in Sandstone, according to the Pine County Sheriff’s Department.

Arndt was doing wheelies in the parking lot of the Hardee’s restaurant in Hinckley when he fell off his bike and hit his head on the curb, said Chief Deputy Steve Ovick.

The sheriff’s office and ambulance were at about 7:54 p.m.

Ovick said that Arndt was not wearing a helmet and witnesses said that Arndt was going about 50-70 mph when he lost control of his motorcycle. The bike flew into the Hardee’s building, but did not damage the structure. No one else was injured.

The idiocy here is not so much the wheelies, but the fact that the rider was not wearing a helmut. THAT is supreme stupidity.

Not wearing a helmet is somewhat common, and ordinarily wouldn't register with me. What makes this a DA for me is the choice of LOCATION...a PARKING LOT! Now THAT is stupid, and the visual of the bike bouncing off the building puts the cherry on the cake!
