According to the Sheriff’s Office, 65-year-old Marilyn Jones veered across the center line in her car and struck an oncoming motorcycle on U.S. 20 and 400 East.

 

The motorcyclist, 43-year-old Brent Kline, was taken via helicopter to a Chicago hospital. Another bike rider, 39-year-old Ty Taverner, wiped out from turning sharply to avoid the car.

 

Jones and her 61-year-old husband, Anthony, were not injured.

 

Kline’s injuries included fractures to both legs. Information could not be obtained on the other injuries he sustained.
