UPDATE: The Clinton County Coroner’s office has released the name of the 28-year-old man killed Wednesday morning in a motorcycle crash near Jolliff Bridge Road.

According to Coroner Phillip Moss, Logan M. Mueller was pronounced dead on the scene at 9:56 a.m. Wednesday.

Moss says a trash collector came across Mueller’s wrecked motorcycle on Linn Road and called 9-1-1. Centralia police were first on the scene as Clinton County Sheriff’s deputies were too far away at the time.
