One man is injured, and another arrested after an accident involving a car and a motorcycle.

50-year-old Joe Scoggins of Bowling Green was driving a motorcycle on Kentucky 6-22.

He collided with a car driven by Gabriel Guerrero-Parada, 24, of Scottsville.

Scoggins lost control, and was thrown from his motorcycle - landing in a ditch.

Guerrero-Parada drove away.

He was later located in Scottsville, where he was arrested and charged with 'leaving the scene of an accident', and 'driving on a suspended license with no insurance.'

Guerrero-Parada is lodged in the Simpson County Detention Center.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Gabby and Mr. Scoggins. This is a bad thing that has happened. Gabby isn't a bad person, he just made some bad choices. He is our friend and we still care about him, and all our Mexican friends at Los Mariachis. They are all good people. We send our prayers that Mr. Scoggins will recover from this, and his family is in our thoughts. We ask that you pray for both individuals involved in this terrible accident.
