At approximately 1:45 p.m. first responders were called to the collision between a motorcycle and a van that sent the driver of the motorcycle to hospital with serious injuries.
Officers say the 62-year-old motorcyclist was travelling north on Box Spring Road when a 23-year-old female driving a van heading southbound attempted to turn left onto Saamis Drive and turned in front of the motorcycle, resulting in the collision.
The Traffic Response Unit, along with EMS and firefighters were on scene for several hours investigating the collision, which impacted traffic in the area.
