CHICAGO — A motorcyclist is in critical condition following a crash Thursday night on the South Side.

Officers responded to the scene just after 8:20 p.m. in the 2400 block of West 87th Street.

Police believe a gray SUV traveling northbound on Western attempted to make a left turn onto 87th Street and collided with a motorcycle traveling southbound.

The unidentified motorcyclist sustained trauma to the body and was transported to Christ Hospital in critical condition.
