Cyclist dies in I-80 crash

A woman from Peabody, Kansas, died in a motorcycle crash at 2:01 p.m. Sept. 9 on Interstate 80 in Sugarloaf Township.

State police at the Hazleton barracks said Eva D. Carey, 55, died at the Lehigh Valley Hospital-Hazleton about an hour after the 2021 Harley-Davidson crashed. Police said members of the general public administered CPR on the victim before police’s arrival at the scene.

Police said she was traveling on the interstate when she began to lose control of the Harley, which overturned, throwing the woman to the ground.

The cycle was towed from the scene. Police said a lane of the interstate was closed for about 90 minutes during the investigation.
