Crofton man injured in motorcycle accident

A motorcyclist was injured in a rear-end collision Wednesday morning on Madisonville Road.

The collision report from the Christian County Sheriff’s Office says a vehicle was stopped and waiting to make a turn into a driveway in the 2100 block of Madisonville Road and Joseph Bilyeu of Crofton was headed northbound approaching from behind.

As Bilyeu crested a hill, he applied his brakes, but was unable to avoid striking the stopped vehicle in the rear.

Bilyeu was taken by EMS to Jennie Stuart Medical Center for injuries to his right foot.
