There was a serious motorcycle accident Thursday night on Provincial Road 210, three miles southeast of La Broquerie.

Deputy La Broquerie Fire Chief J.C. Normandeau says, "We were called around 9:00 last night for a single motorcycle accident. It appears the guy lost control and drove into the ditch and was severely injured. He wasn't in good shape so we hope for the best for him." Normandeau says it appears the motorcycle flipped several times in the ditch.

RCMP say the man remains in critical condition in intensive care in a Winnipeg hospital. They add an accident investigator is looking into whether environmental conditions such as strong winds last night played a role. Police say alcohol was not a factor.
