The Great Falls Police Department has released information about a two-vehicle crash on Monday, September 2, 2024.
The crash happened at about 7:15 p.m. near the intersection of Central Avenue West and 14th Street NW, near Ford's Drive-In, and involved a mini-van and motorcycle.
According to Sgt. Josh Garner of the GFPD on Wednesday, the motorcyclist sustained "life-threatening injuries" and was taken to Benefis Health System hospital.
The motoryclist was then transferred from Benefis to a hospital in Billings.
The GFPD initially said she was was flown to a hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, but later said that weather prevented Mercy Flight from flying to Utah.
At last report, the victim remains in serious condition, according to Garner.
Police are continuing to investigate the crash, noting that impaired (alcohol/drugs) driving is not believed to have been a factor.
