A man in his 30s is in a stable condition after a motorcycle crash at Wangetti at around 11.15pm last night.

The man was taken to Cairns hospital with "abrasions" following the incident.

The cause of the accident remains unknown.

Meantime, Police have charged a Mareeba man after several incidents at Wujal Wujal recently.

Police allege the man attended an address in Bloomfield just days ago and contravened a domestic violence order when he assaulted a woman known to him.

It will be further alleged the man has continued to evade polices attempts to locate him at different addresses in Wujal Wujal.

It will also be alleged that the man struggled violently with police when he was located in a drain on Hartwig Street on June 12 at about 4.30am.

Police will further allege the man broke into a house and vehicle at an address in Kearney Street, Mareeba in April, stealing a debit card before using it multiple times to fraudulently purchase goods.

The 26-year-old man is scheduled to appear in the Cairns Magistrates Court on July 14, charged with four counts of obstructing police, two counts each of fraud and contravening a domestic violence order and one count of entering premises and committing an indictable offence.

Lastly, Police have charged a local man after executing a search warrant just days ago in Cooktown.

It will be alleged that police executed the warrant at about 11am at an address on Railway Avenue and located a large quantity of cannabis plants scattered across the property and drying in a shed.

It will be further alleged that police located cannabis seeds as well as drug utensils inside the house.

The 32-year-old Cooktown man is expected to appear in the Cooktown Magistrates Court on July 7, charged with one count each of producing dangerous drugs over Schedule Two, possessing dangerous drugs over Schedule Two, supplying dangerous drugs and possessing drug utensils.
