FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): A man is in critical condition after a crash on Old Trail Road in Fort Wayne just before midnight Friday.

According to the Fort Wayne Police Department, the man was found lying in the Prairie Grove Cemetery at about 11:59pm. He asked the person who found him there not to call police, but they did anyway.

He became unresponsive before medics arrived and was taken to a nearby hospital.

Police say he had been speeding on Old Trail Road when he lost control as the road curved by the cemetery, plowing through the fence and getting thrown from the bike.

Speed, alcohol, and lighting are all considered factors in the crash. Nobody else was hurt.
