A motorcyclist was taken late Wednesday to Mount Nittany Medical Center after a crash in Ferguson Township, emergency responders said.
Police said the man was riding in Pennsylvania Furnace when his motorcycle collided with a deer shortly before 10 p.m. It happened on the 2000 block of West Pine Grove Road — a rural portion of state Route 45.
The motorcyclist’s name and condition were not immediately available. He suffered a leg injury, according to initial reports at the scene.
As the scene was cleared, emergency officials reduced traffic to one lane for less than an hour. Centre LifeLink, Ferguson Township police, the Alpha Fire Company and Alpha Fire Police all responded to the crash.
