Lacey woman flown to Harborview after motorcycle crash

A 41-year-old Lacey woman was flown to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle on Sunday after she crashed her Harley-Davidson motorcycle, Lacey police said.

About 12:45 a.m. Sunday, the woman was southbound on Ruddell Road Southeast when she failed to negotiate the left turn onto Yelm Highway Southeast. Instead, she apparently hit a curb and the bike “cartwheeled,” Officer Dave Johansen said. She suffered serious injuries but was in stable condition as of about 10:30 a.m. Sunday, he said.

Alcohol was thought to be a factor in the crash, Johansen said.
