The two people on the motorcycle were thrown about 50 feet. Police said they were taken to the Hospital of Saint Raphael’s trauma center.
The woman’s brother, who would not give his name, stopped by the Seymour Police Department Monday morning looking for more details from the crash.
He spoke briefly with the Valley Indy.
He said his sister suffered broken bones, including three vertebrae and a rib.
The motorcycle’s driver suffered broken bones, including several ribs, the brother said.

The accident happened at 3:39 pm.
