A 56 year old Huntingdon man was seriously hurt Tuesday evening when his motorcycle crashed into a van on Bright Hill Road.
Charles Corforth was riding a 1980 Harley Davidson when he crossed into the path of a 2016 Chrysler Town and Country van driven by 35 year old Ashley Williams of Smithville.
Corforth was transported to the hospital by EMS. He was charged with failure to maintain lane of travel, violation of the financial responsibility law (no insurance) and operating a motorcycle without a license. Williams was cited for driving on a suspended license.
The crash was investigated by Trooper Jonathan Burke of the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
