Three people were transported to the hospital Friday evening after a motorcycle struck a car that failed to yield, according to a release from Metro Police.
The crash occurred after the car attempted to make a U-turn on a green light, but failed to yield to the oncoming motorcycle, causing the bike to strike the car, police said. The motorcyclist was severely injured and was transported to Sunrise Hospital in critical condition along with one of the car’s passengers, who suffered minor injuries.
A 13-year-old boy was also on the motorcycle and suffered minor injuries, police said, and was transported to University Medical Center. Impairment or speed are not suspected factors in the crash but the incident is still under investigation, police said.
