A dog running out into the road left one motorcyclist in a ditch unconscious over the weekend.

It happened Saturday afternoon in Isabella County's Sherman Township.

Deputies say a 56-year old man from Ithaca was riding his motorcycle with a group when a dog ran out in to the road and the driver tried to avoid it then lost control and crashed into a ditch.

When first responders arrived, they found the man unconscious but breathing.

The man was flown from the scene by helicopter. His condition is unknown at this time.
