8/26/13 - A Brighton man critically injured in a motorcycle accident last week in Pontiac remains hospitalized. The Oakland County Sheriffâs Office tells WHMI that as of this afternoon, the 65-year-old Brighton man remains listed in critical condition at McLaren Hospital, where he underwent surgery last week. The crash happened last Wednesday afternoon at the intersection of Huron and State Streets when the victim and another motorcyclist, a 73-year-old Brighton resident, were out riding together. The two motorcycles collided at the intersection, causing the victim to fall off. Deputies found him unconscious and suffering from head trauma at the scene while the 73-year-old man was not injured. Authorities say both men were wearing helmets and alcohol did not appear to be a factor in the crash, which remains under investigation. (JM)
