A Lawrence man was hospitalized after suffering serious injuries Saturday in a single-vehicle motorcycle accident, police said.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, around 6 p.m. Saturday James Sneegas, 66, lost control of his motorcycle on a wet road just north of Bland, Mo. The motorcycle left the roadway and hit a rock bluff, the patrol report said.
Bland is located southeast of Jefferson City, Mo.
Sneegas was flown by air ambulance to the University of Missouri Hospital in Columbia, where he is listed in critical condition.
Sneegas’ motorcycle, a 1947 Harley-Davidson, was extensively damaged in the crash, the patrol report said.
A Missouri State Highway Patrol representative did not immediately return phone calls seeking more information on Tuesday afternoon.
