An injury accident involving a motorcycle and a semi-truck resulted in two being injured Saturday. At 2:08 p.m., Edward Sutton, 56, of Jackson, Mich., was driving on the on-ramp to Interstate 75 northbound from U.S. 33 in a 2006 Harley Davidson motorcycle when he hit a patch of melted tar and then struck a semi truck on 75.

Sutton was transported by the Wapakoneta EMS to Lima Memorial Hospital for non-incapacitating injuries, and a passenger on the motorcycle, Debra Moore, 44, of Jackson, Mich., suffered incapacitating injuries. Moore was also transported to Lima Memorial Hospital by the Wapakoneta EMS. Sutton's motorcycle suffered disabling damage.
