SALISBURY — A Rowan County man was in serious condition Thursday following a scooter accident Wednesday afternoon.
Dennis Story, 48, was traveling southwest in the right lane on South Main Street when he moved into the path of a car. The incident occurred shortly after 4 p.m.
The driver of the vehicle swerved into the right lane to avoid a wreck and nearly collided with the scooter, which had also moved back into the right lane.
Story lost control of the scooter and crashed. He was taken to Rowan Regional Medical Center and later flown to Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem with injuries that were not life-threatening, said Capt. Sheila Lingle of the Salisbury Police Department.
No charges have been filed.
