ST. CLOUD -- A motorcyclist had a close call with a semi truck this (Monday) morning. The incident happened just before 8:00 a.m. at 8th Street North in St. Cloud.

Sergeant Jason Burke says a semi truck driven by 38-year-old Byron Navas-Herrarte, of Roseville, was making a right turn to go east on 8th street and didn't noticed a motorcyclist also on 8th Street.

21-year-old Lance Berg, of St. Cloud, was the driver of the motorcycle. He quickly laid down the motorcyle to avoid a collision.

Berg suffered minor injuries but refused medical attention at the scene. He was cited for no motorcycle endorsement.

Nava-Herrarte was cited for right of way violation.
