'Indian Larry' Said Killed at Bike Show
Mon Aug 30, 9:45 PM ET
CONCORD, N.C. - A custom motorcycle builder known for his appearances on
cable's Discovery Channel died Monday at a hospital of head injuries
suffered during a stunt, officials said.
"Indian Larry" fell off a motorcycle Saturday while performing before 8,000
people at an arena outside Charlotte. He was not wearing a helmet, the
officials said.
Indian Larry was standing on the moving bike when it began to wobble and
went out of control, said Mike Downs, Cabarrus County deputy manager. His
full name was not immediately known.
"Indian Larry was a man with great skill and talent as a mechanic and metal
sculptor," said Robert Freeman, chairman of the county board of
commissioners. "He will be truly missed by his fans here in Cabarrus County
and throughout the nation."
Indian Larry, who appeared in movies and television shows, was featured on a
Discovery Channel series in which motorcycle builders design and build bikes
from scratch, then have them judged by motorcycle aficionados.
