Deese was in the middle of the road when his 2003 Harley-Davidson hit the slightly raised bump in a pedestrian crosswalk beside UNCP and then crashed into a street sign, Johnson said.
Deese was thrown from the motorcycle. He was wearing a helmet, but it did not meet approved safety standards, Johnson said.
Deese was pronounced dead at Southeastern Regional Medical Center, Johnson said.
