MORGAN COUNTY, Utah — A motorcycle rider sustained critical injuries after accidentally hitting a car near Mountain Green Saturday night.

Utah Highway Patrol said this happened around 9:45 p.m. on Trappers Loop Road, less than one mile north of Mountain Green. The motorcycle rider, a man in his 50s, crashed into the back of a passenger car and was then transported by helicopter to a local hospital.

The crash prompted the closure of Trappers Loop Road in both directions for a number of hours, but it has since been reopened.
