Police in Halifax say an officer was injured Thursday after crashing his motorcycle on a highway ramp.
Halifax Regional Police say the accident happened at 10:40 a.m. on a ramp off Highway 101 in Bedford.
Police say the officer lost control of the motorcycle after running over some fluid on the road.
Sgt. Pierre Bourdages says police believe the liquid was transmission fluid, which made the road surface slick.
Bourdages says the officer remained in hospital Thursday afternoon with injuries that are not considered life threatening.
Police say the liquid has since been cleaned up.
