A crash involving three motorcycles sent two people to the hospital.

According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, 26-year-old Anton Cogdell of Fort Riley was riding a CFMOTO 675 SS motorcycle along K 57 Highway when he lost control on a curve and went off the road to the right.

He observed the crash in front of him, broke hard, and was struck from behind by 25-year-old Calderon Velazquez of Junction City, who was riding an Aprilla RS 660 motorcycle. Velazquez’s bike then flipped end over end and came to rest in the road.
