JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — A motorcyclist is injured after he hit a deer in Cass County.
It happened just before 1:30 a.m. Wednesday on M-62 near Pine Lake Street in Jefferson Township.
Cass County Sheriff deputies say 42-year-old James Craft from Elkhart Indiana was traveling southbound on M-62 when he struck the deer.
A passerby picked up Craft, took him to the Village of Cassopolis, and contacted the sheriff’s department. He was then transported to Elkhart General hospital where his current condition has not been released.
Authorities say it does not appear that a helmet was worn and drugs and alcohol are likely not a factor in the crash. They’re still investigating the incident.
