Sonora, CA — One person was flown from the scene of a motorcycle crash that shut down a section of North Washington Street in downtown Sonora last night.
The collision happened just after 7 p.m. in front of the Red Church. That section was closed for more than an hour as traffic was rerouted and a tow crew removed the wreckage. The unidentified rider was flown from the scene to a valley hospital for treatment of major injuries. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
