In my neck of the woods. Strange - they don't say if a vehicle was involved. Non-life threatening, though.

Wow, they(hospital and police) called us this morning to see if we could ID the guy. When the detective brought the picture by he had just gotten some information they might have a lead on his ID. This was good because we did not recognise him.

wait a minute - did they bring by a picture of the guy, or of his bike?

They must have sedated him to stop him worrying about the state of his bike.

A photo of him. He was pretty beat up. He did not need sedation as he was unconscious.

The original news report said he was sedated.
