RIGBY — A Rigby motorcyclist was taken to the hospital after he was hit by a pickup truck Wednesday evening. The accident occured on County Line Road, near the Highway 20 exit, says Jennifer Fullmer, the public information officer for the Jefferson County Sheriff’s office.

“Harris was stopped in the turn lane waiting to turn northbound onto Highway 20,” according to the news release. He was transported via ambulance to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Baker was checked at the scene.
