A motorcyclist was seriously injured in a crash Wednesday morning.

Police said the incident happened around 7:25 a.m. near Pawnee and Hiram. There they found the 27-old-motorcycle rider who had been thrown from his bike after being hit by a pickup that was being driven by a 15-year-old boy.

The motorcyclist was transported to an area hospital and treated for serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Police said he had sustained burns to a large portion of his body after the pickup truck caught fire after the crash.

Investigators later learned that the victim was westbound on Pawnee when he collided with the pickup, which was attempting to make a left turn from southbound Hiram onto eastbound Pawnee. The driver of the pickup truck was able to exit the vehicle unharmed.

Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to contact detectives at 316-350-3687
