An early morning single-motorcycle crash left a young Marine dead, highway patrol officials said Saturday.

Officials with the N.C. Highway Patrol in Jacksonville said the wreck took place not far from Piney Green Road, on Lake Cole Road near Woodbrook Drive, just after 3:30 a.m.

A 25-year-old man driving a blue Yamaha motorcycle came out of a slight curve and ran off the roadway to the right, striking a drain culvert in a driveway, officials said. The motorcyclist was thrown off the bike about 100 feet into a nearby yard and died at the scene. Troopers said Saturday the man was taken to Onslow Memorial Hospital and the cause of death was blunt trauma from the crash.
