WAYNE TOWNSHIP, Mich.— A 45-year-old man was taken to the hospital after a motorcycle accident Saturday evening.

Deputies responded to the scene around 4:25pm at the intersection of Dutch Settlement Street and Nubour Road in Cass County.

Pedat was taken to a hospital to be treated for his injuries.
