A two vehicle accident Tuesday night in Columbia County left a Grovetown man dead.

Major Steve Morris of the Columbia County Sheriff's Office says the accident was reported at 8:15 pm on Jimmie Dyess Parkway at the I-20 eastbound on-ramp.

A motorcycle driven by 29-year-old Tyler Ray Dunham of Longmeadow Drive collided with a Jeep Grand Cherokee at the intersection.

Dunham was ejected from the motorcycle when the two vehicles collided. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Brown and a passenger in his vehicle were taken to Doctors Hospital for treatment. Brown was reported to be in stable condition.
