Investigators said the driver apparently realized the turn could not be completed and, while attempting to re-enter the travel lane, drove into the path of Wolfe’s motorcycle.<\/p>\n

After the collision, Wolfe became trapped beneath the SUV and was dragged for more than a mile as the driver fled the scene, according to police.<\/p>\n

Wolfe was taken to a hospital with critical injuries and died at 4:41 a.m. the following day.<\/p>\n
