MANITOWOC COUNTY — A man driving a motorcycle Friday morning died after a crash on CTH CR north of Clover View Road.

The Sheriff's Office said Tadych was thrown from the motorcycle after the crash. He was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. The Sheriff's Office said he was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash. The 17-year-old driver was also taken to a hospital for possible injuries.
