Motorcycle runs into truck door in Tilden Township

TILDEN TOWNSHIP, MI--   One person suffered injuries when a motorcycle hit a parked truck in Tilden Township over the weekend. 

Saturday around 12:55 p.m. the Marquette County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to County Road PBG. The driver of the bike had apparently come over the crest of a hill too fast and ran off the road. The rider tried to correct the motorcycle but ended up hitting the open door of a truck. The bike stopped abruptly between the door and the truck frame.

There was minor damage to both vehicles.

The rider was taken to UPHS-Bell for non-life-threatening injuries. They were wearing a helmet at the time of the crash.

No name will be released as the rider is underage.  They were cited for county ORV violations.
