A motorcycle accident Sunday evening in Audubon County resulted in one person being sent to the hospital. The Audubon County Sheriff’s Office says 58-year old Brian Dale Schmidt, of Audubon, suffered unknown injuries and was transported by Exira Fire and Rescue to the Audubon County Memorial Hospital, after he lost control of his 1999 Harley Davidson cycle.

Schmidt was traveling south on Pheasant Avenue northeast of Exira at around 5-p.m., when the crash occurred. He became separated from the machine during the crash and ended up in the west ditch. Damage to the cycle was estimated at $9,000.
