One person is in hospital following an incident Tuesday morning.
At 7:23am, Quesnel RCMP and North District Traffic Services were called to the scene of a motorcycle crash on Highway 97 about five kilometres south of Hixon.
A Suzuki motorcycle was travelling northbound when the driver, and lone rider, lost control and was thrown off the bike. Police do believe speed is a factor.
The 23-year-old man was taken to hospital for what is described as “serious injuries”.
