Investigators from the local police force detailed that emergency responders arrived at the scene shortly after 7:16 p.m. They encountered two individuals who were receiving medical attention due to the severity of their conditions.

Further information provided by law enforcement indicates that the motorcycle operator involved in the accident was transported to a healthcare facility. It is reported that this individual received medical treatment for potentially serious health issues.
Preliminary findings from the ongoing examination of the situation suggest the following events: The motorcycle was observed traveling south along Highway 85 as it approached Main Street. Separately, an individual was crossing a pedestrian walkway in a manner that was contrary to the designated crossing signals when they were unfortunately struck by the motorcycle.
To manage the situation, road authorities implemented a temporary closure of Highway 85 in the affected zone. This closure was eventually lifted after approximately three hours, with the roadway becoming accessible again around 1:00 a.m.
