A 20-year-old Clarks Grove man was airlifted to St. Marys Hospital in Rochester Wednesday afternoon after his motorcycle collided with a car on East Main Street in Albert Lea.
Dylan A. Hanson was not wearing a helmet, and his condition as of this morning was fair.
He was reportedly traveling eastbound on East Main in a 2000 Harley-Davidson Road Street when a 2012 Ford Fusion, driven by Donald R. Bell, 70, of Dodge Center, proceeded north from the stop sign on 775th Avenue out of the Trail’s Travel Center parking lot into Hanson’s path.
Hanson struck the car broadside, according to the Minnesota State Patrol.
