Clarksville, TN – On June 22nd, 2012, around 5:40am, a 41 year old man was riding a 2009 Harley south on Trenton Road when a deer crossed in front of the motorcycle.
The rider swerved to avoid a crash with the deer, crossed into the northbound lane, and collided with the side of a 2008 Chrysler Town and Country Van, traveling southbound, driven by Christopher Fullen, 44.
Fullen observed the motorcyclist swerve, took evasive action, and prevented a head-on collision.
The 41 year old motorcycle rider was taken to Vanderbilt University [2] Medical Center by Lifeflight and is in critical condition. EMS treated and released the passengers in the van for non life-threatening injuries.
The lead investigator is Officer John Reyes.
