State troopers say a man and woman injured early Friday morning in a motorcycle wreck were both naked when the bike they were on veered off Meadowview Road in Jacksonville.
Steven Sheals, 38, of Meadowview Road, and his passenger, Jennifer Smith, 30, of Parnell Road in Hubert, were thrown from the motorcycle when it crashed. A trooper said the motorcycle was traveling east on Meadowview, toward Sheals’ home, when he failed to negotiate a curve and ran off the road into a ditch.
Smith managed to walk three-tenths of a mile for help despite a broken arm and leg, according to the Highway Patrol. Smith told a trooper at the scene that she used a stick for support and walked to the office of a nearby landfill.
Troopers said alcohol was a factor in the 3 a.m. crash. The call for assistance didn’t come in until after 5 a.m., two hours after the crash occurred, troopers said.
Sheals has been charged with driving while intoxicated, reckless driving, driving without a license, license revoked, expired inspection, no insurance and no helmet, according to authorities.
Smith was treated at Onslow Memorial Hospital, and Sheals was airlifted to New Hanover Regional Hospital, authorities said. Sheals is listed in fair condition, according to New Hanover Regional Hospital officials.
