A motorcycle apparently collided with a large truck this afternoon in the Carson Spur area near Kirkwood Mountain Resort and State Route 88.
According to police scanner traffic, the motorcyclist was pinned underneath the truck, possibly a big rig. A CALSTAR air ambulance was dispatched to the accident scene. A ground ambulance was, at last report at around 2:40 p.m, to transport the downed cyclist to a zone cleared for CALSTAR to land.
