The Ranger in Riverton reports (https://bit.ly/1dlXoIc ) that 54-year-old Eiley R. Holliman had a blood-alcohol content of .188 when his 2007 Yamaha motorcycle left the paved portion of 8 Mile Road, slid sideways down the borrow ditch for more than 400 feet and crashing into a fence line on May 2.

He was thrown about 288 feet from the motorcycle after the bike left the roadway. He was not wearing a helmet.
