A motorcyclist suffered serious injuries after being involved in a crash in Sparks Thursday night.

On Thursday, October 6, around 7:54 PM, Sparks Police, Sparks Fire and REMSA responded to the intersection of East Prater Way and Marina Gateway Drive for a report of a motorcycle versus vehicle traffic collision.

When emergency crews arrived on scene they found a single rider with significant injuries, who was later transported to a local hospital. 

The driver of the vehicle remained on scene and cooperated with law enforcement. 

Speed and alcohol do not appear to be a factor; however, the driver identified as Oscar Duckworth was found to be at fault and arrested on several charges. 

The motorcycle rider is in serious but stable condition.
