HELENA — A pedestrian struck by a truck near the state Capitol was flown to Billings for medical care Wednesday.
Denver Henderson with the American Cancer Society, as identified by a GoFundMe posting, was struck at the crosswalk on the corner of Montana Avenue and 5th Street in Helena around 7:20 a.m.
He sustained a broken pelvis, broken ribs, and a collapsed lung. He was life-flighted to Billings so that he could receive care at a Level 1 Trauma Center.
“While his injuries are serious, he is alert and his vitals are good,” said a statement on his GoFundMe.
A GoFundMe is set up to help Henderson and his family while he recovers.
Henderson was scheduled to testify before the Legislation and speak at a Medicaid expansion rally.
