A man is in critical condition following a motorcycle crash east of Valley Center on Saturday afternoon, a Sedgwick County dispatcher said.

Shortly after 3:30 p.m., officers received a call that a motorcycle had collided with a truck at 85th and Broadway, said Brandon Green, Park City police officer.

“When we arrived, paramedics and firefighters were working on the driver (of the motorcycle),” Green said.

The driver of the Harley-Davidson, who Green estimated is in his late 30s, was unresponsive when he was taken to Via Christi Hospital St. Francis.
