motor assisted bike accident

[Elmo]

Sunday the other MB here in town was hit by a car. At church a couple of people asked if it was me. Nope. I met the guy while I was building mine, he had a cruiser with a happy time engine and always pulled a trailer. I do not know any details and there has been nothing in the newspaper. Not uncommon for our rag. He definately was hit and rumor has it that a police car hit him. No word on his condition. He must not be dead as no obit.

Update us when you can. Maybe call the hospital or newspaper and pay the guy a visit.

Sad news. I hope he's OK.

I still haven't found out the riders condition, called the newspaper and they didn't know that it happened. An offduty deputy who is a friend of mine was pulling a trailer with a pickup and pulled out to pass the bike. When his truck was past the bike the rider turned into the space between the truck and trailer. Guess he didn't see the trailer and was turning into the place where he lived.
Someone went into my daughter's place of business and told her that an older white man riding a motor bicycle had been hit and she freaked out. She didn't know that there were two of us in this town. She called me and was o.k. when she found out that it was someone else. Not that she wasn't sorry that it happened to the other guy just relieved that it wasn't her dad.
I will post more when I know more that is verified true.Sure hate that it happened.

This was in todays paper.
NATCHEZ — A Lucedale man received serious injuries Sunday afternoon when the bike he was riding was struck by a truck hauling a trailer on Mississippi 555.

The Mississippi Highway Patrol and the Adams County Sheriff’s Office received a call about the incident at 3:07 p.m.

Mason Storm, 43, was struck by a 2008 Chevy pick-up pulling a utility trailer. Both Storm and the truck’s driver, Gregory W. Lee, 38, of Natchez, were driving north on 555.

Lee reportedly attempted to pass the bike. The bike turned in between the truck and the trailer, the highway patrol report says.

Mason was transported first to Natchez Regional Medical Center with severe injuries and then to University Medical Center in Jackson.

The highway patrol report said there was no evidence that Mason was wearing a helmet.
