Brian W. Flack, 21, of Sheridan died Wednesday at St. Vincent's Hospital in Billings after suffering massive head injuries in a motorcycle accident Tuesday afternoon.

Sheridan County Sheriff Dave Hofmeier said Flack was injured in a "freak accident" at 5:17 p.m. at the motorcycle race track when Flack's motorcycle "landed wrong" after going over a jump on the course.

Flack was flipped over the handlebars.

Hofmeier said Flack was wearing "all the protective gear" including a helmet.

"He was doing the same thing he had always done," the sheriff added. "It was just a freak accident."

Hofmeier added, "My heart goes out to his family and friends."
