The driver of a motorcycle was flown by medical helicopter with a serious leg injury after a crash on Route 119 in Rindge on Monday afternoon.

At about 1:30 p.m. on Monday, a motorcycle and another vehicle, both of whom were traveling eastbound on Route 119, collided as the other vehicle was attempting to turn into the Irving gas station, according to Rindge police officer James McGeeney on the scene.

The driver of the other vehicle involved was not injured. The man riding the motorcycle sustained a serious but not life-threatening leg injury and had to be flown by medical helicopter to UMass Memorial Hospital in Worcester, Massachusetts, McGeeney said.
