Two people were seriously injured Monday afternoon in a motorcycle crash in Ryan Township.

The incident occurred at 3:30 p.m. as the biker was traveling north on Hillside Road when a neighboring pit bull rode out in front of the bike.

The bike struck the dog, with the motorcycle going down along the roadway.

One of the injured was transported by ambulance while the second was flown from the scene. State police at Frackville are investigating the incident.
