GAINESVILLE, Ga. - Authorities say a Hall County sheriff's deputy has been killed in a motorcycle crash on Interstate 985.

The Times of Gainesville reports ( http://bit.ly/pNqPAy) that 21-year-old Anthony Seda of Gainesville was driving his personal motorcycle north on the interstate near Georgia Highway 53 Wednesday night when he lost control on a curve. Authorities say he was thrown from his bike and struck a guardrail fence.

Hall County sheriff's Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks said the deputy, who was off-duty, had been with the sheriff's office for about a year and was assigned to the jail division. Seda was scheduled to transfer next week to the uniform patrol division.
