(Des Moines, Iowa) — A Des Moines man is stranded in Mexico after suffering serious injuries in a motorcycle crash on the Baja Peninsula.
Casey Miller, 39, was riding with a friend to celebrate the New Year when the crash happened Tuesday. According to his friend Calen Lehman, Miller was passing a semi‑truck on a mountain road when he collided with an oncoming vehicle at highway speed.
“We had just come out of a curve going up a mountain. He went to pass the semi, couldn’t see the car, and they made contact at highway speed,” Lehman said. “He was just laying there, blood running down the street.
