ST. LUCIE COUNTY — A man in his mid 50s was taken to a local hospital Wednesday morning with minor injuries following a motorcycle crash, according to the St. Lucie County Fire District.

Fire District crews were called 2:43 a.m. to the incident in the 6500 block of Glades Cut-Off Road, the Fire District stated.

The motorcycle driver told rescue officials he’d swerved to avoid a pick-up truck and “put the motorcycle down,” Fire District spokeswoman Catherine Chaney said.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether the man, who was taken to a local hospital, wore a helmet.
