CUSTER — A 32-year-old Ludington man driving a motorized scooter was injured following a crash on US 10 Monday afternoon. The man was driving a Honda scooter westbound in the 1900 block of US 10, east of Tuttle Road, when he supposedly struck a parked vehicle and trailer. The trailer was parked on the shoulder of the road while its owner was mowing a nearby lawn.

The scooter driver, who was conscious and alert on scene, was transported by ambulance to Spectrum Health Ludington Hospital. He reportedly was wearing a helmet at the time of the incident.

Emergency personnel were dispatched to the scene at 12:08 p.m. Responding units included Mason County Sheriff’s Office, Scottville Police Department, Custer Fire Department and Life EMS.
