UTAH COUNTY -- A man was injured while riding a dirt bike in American Fork Canyon.
The Utah County Sheriff's Office says the man and some friends were riding motorcycles along the Ridge Trail near Tibble Fork Dam around 9:45 p.m. Sunday when the man fell and broke his leg.
Another rider created a make-shift splint for the injured man before heading down the canyon to get phone reception and call for help.
Search and rescue crews were able to reach the injured biker and help him out of the canyon by 11 p.m.
