UPDATE: The Wyoming Highway Patrol tells K2 Radio news that the accident appears to be a case of failure to yield the right-of-way.

The driver of the small SUV was pointed east on Wyoming Boulevard, and preparing to turn left onto McKinley Street.

The motorcycle was headed west on Wyoming, and the SUV driver told officers she simply didn't see him.

The rider was thrown from the bike and sustained serious leg injuries. He was reported in surgery last night, but his condition is not known at the moment.

The female driver of the truck submitted to a blood test, and alcohol and drugs are not thought to have played a part in the accident.

No names have been released.
