Mount Pleasant crash victim credits firefighter for aid
Motorcycle Crash Mount Pleasant Michigan in Mount Pleasant, Michigan: A Sanford couple was injured on Saturday when their motorcycle was struck or forced to swerve by a truck driven by a 58-year-old Shepherd man on Pickard Road near the Soaring Eagle Waterpark in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. A visiting Knoxville-area firefighter who had just met the couple at a Harley-Davidson store rendered aid until paramedics arrived. Michigan State Police are investigating the crash; witnesses said the truck clipped the motorcycle's rear light, though another witness said the truck did not hit the motorcycle but caused it to swerve. The truck driver continued about 500 feet before being forced to stop by witnesses, and police later spoke with him; there was no indication the crash was intentional or that the driver fled.
