The Medical Examiner says Jason Estes was the man riding the motorcycle that crashed on a rural stretch of Johnson Bend Road about five miles outside Weatherford.

The Parker County Sheriff's Office says a deputy was trying to pull over a motorcycle going extremely fast, up to 140 miles-an-hour at times.

The crash happened when Estes tried to take a very sharp turn from south-bound 920 onto Johnson Bend. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
