Vehicle Collision Yesterday, 4 July Involving a Cyclist

The 9-1-1 Communications Centre dispatched police and emergency services to a vehicle collision yesterday 4 July, around 4:24pm,  involving a bicycle and a Honda Fit, on Northward Road.

It appears that the cyclist, a 14-year-old male, exited Poplar Street in Northward, and ran in to the side of the Honda being driven on the main road. The cyclist was knocked from the bicycle and fell to the ground, and the vehicle sustained minor damage to the right side.

The teenage boy appears to have sustained head injuries and other bodily injuries. He was transported to the George Town Hospital where he is being treated for what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.

The driver of the Honda remained on scene after the incident and provided information to first responders.
