Two people were taken to a hospital after a vehicle-vs-motorcycle accident north of Alliance on Highway 87.
On Aug. 13 at 11:58 a.m. a 2010 Honda Accord driven by 22-year-old Alexander Schaumann of Minnesota rear ended a 2016 Harley-Davidson motorcycle driven by 71-year-old James Adrian of Texas.
"They were both south bound," Alliance Sheriff Deputy Marcus Hjesman said. "The motorcycle was trying to turn left into the Carhenge parking lot. The Honda failed to stop in time and rear ended the motorcycle."
Highway 87 was shut down for approximately 1 hour.
James Adrian and his 70-year-old wife Judy were both transported to Box Butte General Hospital for injuries in the crash.
The Alliance Police Department assisted the Box Butte County Sheriff's Office with this accident.
