Authorities in Montgomery County say a Villisca man suffered minor cuts and abrasions to his hands Sunday evening, after the motorcycle he was driving hit a deer on eastbound Highway 34. The accident happened at around 5:25-p.m.

Officials say 50-year old Troy Don Anderson, who was not wearing a helmet, was riding a 2007 Harley Davidson when a deer appeared on the road about a mile west of Stanton. The deer and cycle collided broadside, causing Anderson to lay the bike down on its side. The man refused medical treatment. He was cited for failure to have a valid motorcycle license. Damage to the cycle was estimated at $7,000.
