WAYNESVILLE, Mo. (Jan. 10, 2009) — Motorcycle crashes can often be serious, so Pulaski County Ambulance District personnel and Waynesville firefighters placed a medical helicopter on standby when they received a report of a motorcycle crash on Highway H south of Waynesville near the junction of Polla Road, just before the border of Fort Leonard Wood.
However, emergency personnel discovered when they arrived that both of the two riders on the motorcycle suffered only minor injuries.
Troopers reported that Patrick J. Wadleigh, 37, of Waynesville, was northbound at 4:40 p.m. Friday riding a 2005 Harley Davidson motorcycle when he slid on some gravel and overturned, ejecting both himself and his passenger, also named Patrick J. Wadleigh, 17, a Waynesville resident.
Both were transported by Pulaski County Ambulance District paramedics to St. John’s Hospital in Lebanon for treatment. Their Harley sustained only minor damage and was removed by Carr Star of St. Robert.
