LOWER LAKE – A juvenile riding a motorcycle was injured Monday evening in a collision with a pickup pulling a horse trailer near Lower Lake.

The California Highway Patrol reported that the crash took place shortly before 6 p.m. at Riata Lane and Spruce Grove Road.

Few details on the crash were available late Monday, with the CHP only reporting that the juvenile – whose age and gender were not available by time of publication – had collided with a Dodge pickup hauling a horse trailer.

Firefighters transported the juvenile to nearby Jonas Oil, which became an impromptu staging area for a Calstar helicopter.

The helicopter departed at about 6:30 p.m., headed for UC Davis Medical Center, which it expected to reach in under 30 minutes.

Monday evening's motorcycle-related collision was the third in as many days. Two fatal motorcycle crashes occurred Saturday.
