A 41-year-old man died after a motorcycle crash early Sunday morning near Craig and Losee roads, according to North Las Vegas police.

Johnston Graves Overbey, of North Las Vegas, was found on Donovan Way near East Craig Road about 3:45 a.m. He was pronounced dead on scene.

He was southbound on Donovan Way on a 2005 Harley Davidson when police say he lost control of the bike. Evidence suggests the motorcycle ran off the road and Overbey was thrown from the vehicle. Police believe speed is a factor.
