A motorcycle-vehicle crash in Port Huron Township on Wednesday has the rider in critical condition.

On Wednesday, a GMC Yukon was southbound on 24th Street and in the center lane. He attempted to to make a left hand turn onto Petit Street to the east, failing to yield to the motorcycle rider that was heading north. When the two vehicles collided, it sent the biker, a 57-year-old man from Port Huron, flying, ejecting him from his bike.

He was taken to Lake Huron Medical Center via Tri-Hospital EMS to be stabilized, before continuing on to Troy Beaumont Hospital for further treatment of his injuries. He was listed in critical condition, and the crash remains under investigation by the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Department.

The Port Huron Township Fire Department also assisted at the scene.
