A motorcycle accident early Sunday morning claimed the life of a Cleveland man. 23-year-old Levi Jacob Sullens was killed in a single-vehicle wreck on Beaver Dam Road in Clarkesville.
Around 7:41 a.m. on August 21, authorities were dispatched to the scene a short distance from Highway 115. A preliminary report from the Georgia State Patrol says the crash may have occurred as early as 2:15 a.m. The exact time of the crash is unknown.
According to GSP, Sullens was driving a 2019 Husqvarna FE 501 north on Beaver Dam Road when he lost control of the bike at Gastley Road. The motorcycle traveled off the roadway and struck a sign. The motorcycle came to an uncontrolled rest facing west on its wheels.
Habersham County Coroner Kasey McEntire pronounced Sullens dead at the scene. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family,” he says.
Troopers from GSP Post 7 in Toccoa are still investigating the crash, according to Department of Public Safety Public Information Officer Franka Young.
