A Plymouth man was transported a short distance to St. Joseph Regional Medical Center after his moped was rear-ended by a small car on State Road 17 west of Meadow Lane late Friday morning. Eugene Cowen, 68, was stopped waiting to make a left turn into the hospital parking lot, according to Plymouth Police. A Chevrolet Cruze driven by 24-year-old Jacob Whaley struck the moped. Cowen was taken by ambulance to the hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries. Whaley was not injured.
Both vehicles were towed. The accident is still under investigation.
