The wreck occurred Sunday night on Stonebrook Place in north Jackson. Jacob Dietrich, a Jackson native, was enjoying food at a nearby restaurant Sunday night with his friend, Cole McCorkle, a Lebanon resident and firefighter for Lebanon Fire Department.
Dietrich said he watched as the wreck happened.
“We heard a noise. I turn around and we see this guy on a motorcycle hit the ground, the guy flips, goes about 30-40 yards across the street,” Dietrich said.
Dietrich said he and McCorkle immediately ran outside the restaurant to respond to the motorcyclist.
“I kind of just reacted. Adrenaline was pumping, so I just started running over towards it,” McCorkle said.
When they reached the injured cyclist, they discovered he had already dialed 911 and was responsive.
McCorkle and Dietrich said they could both see a visible injury to the thigh of the cyclist.
