A motorcyclist was injured Thursday after reportedly being forced into the median of Interstate 39/90 near Stoughton by a semi-truck driver who came into the motorcyclist's lane of traffic.

Michael Loomer, 51, Elkhorn, suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was transported to UW Hospital.

According to the Wisconsin State Patrol, the semi-truck driver, Clarence Jamison, 64, Wilton, Iowa, was in the right lane of the southbound lanes when he moved into the left lane, forcing Loomer into the median.

No citation was issued, but the investigation is continuing.
