(KAIR)--A Troy, Kansas motorcyclist, traveling in Harrison County, Missouri Monday afternoon, escaped serious injury after her motorcycle crashed a mile north of Bethany, Missouri, on I-35.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that 52-year-old Melissa McConnaughey was southbound on the interstate when she lost the rear driver's side wheel of her Harley-Davidson Tri-Glide.
The loss of the tire caused the formerly three-wheeled motorcycle to leave the east side of the roadway, and cross the median and northbound lanes of traffic, before crashing into a ditch off the east side of the roadway.
McConnaughey was ejected, and was transported by ambulance to the Harrison County Community Hospital for the treatment of what the Patrol calls minor injuries.
The wreck happened shortly after 3:00 Monday afternoon.
