Cyclist Injured in Collision With Vehicle

Cyclist received broken bones in early-morning crash.

A bicyclist received a broken arm and possibly some fractured ribs when the victim collided with a vehicle, police said.

The accident happened on Foothill Blvd. at North Alta Vista Avenue at 9:49 a.m. The cyclist was traveling along Foothill and allegedly broadsided the vehicle, which was traveling northbound on Alta Vista into the intersection, said Lt. Zeke Cereceres. The vehicle may have failed to yield, but those details were not immediately known.

The injured cyclist was transported to Huntington Memorial Hospital. The cyclist complained of some chest injuries, which could be the result of broken ribs, but Lt. Cereceres was not sure of what further injuries there were beyond the broken arm.
