A Piggott man died Saturday after a motorcycle accident in Clay County, the Arkansas State Police said.

Chad Holland Carmack, 34, was riding a 2007 Harley Davidson motorcycle east on U.S. 62 in Pollard about 5 p.m. Saturday when he lost control and slid beneath a 2014 Dodge going the opposite direction, according to an Arkansas State Police accident report.

Carmack came to rest in a ditch on the west side of the highway; he was dead at the scene, state police said. The driver of the Dodge was uninjured, according to the report.
