There’s been no word yet if another vehicle was involved, but a scooter rider – described as a man around 60 years old – fell in the 8400 block of 1st Avenue South [vicinity map], just west of Highway 509, and was seriously hurt.
Medics just told dispatch he is regaining consciousness, but that stretch of 1st is blocked by the response for now.
