On July 2, 2026, a motorcyclist suffered major injuries after colliding with a deer on State Route 44, just west of Lassen County. The male rider was found off the roadway, and another party was on scene attempting to slow down traffic with a flag. CHP and the fire department responded to the scene. The victim was transported to Mercy Hospital by Mayers Medic #2 for blood abrasions on his left arm and knee, and a possible dislocated shoulder. The fire department moved the deer's remains into the woods.
