The Aiken County Coroner's Officer is reporting one man is dead after a chase and an officer involved shooting in Aiken County.

Officials say the incident happened on on Pine Log Road near Trailwood Avenue. A Aiken Sheriff's Department deputy tried to stop a man for a traffic violation.

The man was riding a Harley Davidson motorcycle. The motorcycle fled from the deputy and a chase happened say officials.

The chase ended when the rider lost control of the motorcycle on the east bound lane Interstate 20 near the 11-mile marker.

Once the deputy caught up with the biker, shots were fired and the motorcycle rider sustained at least one gunshot wound to the body and was pronounced dead on the scene according to officials.

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division is investigating this incident. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday morning in Newberry.
