PERE MARQUETTE TOWNSHIP — A 76-year-old motorcyclist from Hart was injured after his motorcycle was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by a Custer woman Tuesday afternoon. The crash occurred on Pere Marquette Highway near the US 31 southbound onramp. Mason County Sheriff Dep. Adam Lamb said a semi-truck and trailer was in the process of turning onto the onramp and the motorcycle was traveling behind the semi. The at-fault vehicle driver told deputies that she did not see the motorcycle and rear-ended it.

The motorcyclist was transported to Spectrum Health Ludington Hospital by ambulance with non-life-threatening injuries, Lamb said.

Responding to the scene were Mason County Sheriff’s Office, Pere Marquette Township Fire Department, Ludington Fire Department, and Life EMS.
