A Mason teenager was injured in a motorcycle crash over the weekend.

17-year-old Dawson Higgs was traveling on Funkhouser Road, just south of 1150th Avenue when he lost control of the cycle he was operating in gravel. The motorcycle tipped over, throwing Higgs off the vehicle.

Higgs was airlifted from the scene of the crash to HSHS St. John's Hospital in Springfield.

Higgs was cited for improper operation of an off-highway motorcycle. The crash happened just after 1pm Saturday.
