Ty's Take

A Pleasant Hill man is recovering from serious injuries after a motorcycle accident up in Camden County, which is a reminder that these back roads around the lake region don't always forgive mistakes the way people think they will. Summer's barely started and we're already seeing the kind of calls that stick with first responders for years.
