A teenager is in hospital with serious injuries after being struck by a vehicle while cycling in Prince George, B.C.
The 17-year-old was found by Mounties at the intersection of Winnipeg Street and Eleventh Avenue after being hit just before 9 a.m. Friday, Prince George RCMP said in a release.
The teenager was taken to hospital with serious injuries. According to Cpl. Jennifer Cooper, the driver remained at the scene and is 'co-operating fully' with the police investigation.
Police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident or may have relevant cellphone or dash camera video to contact the Prince George RCMP's non-emergency line at 250-561-3300.
The incident marks the second cyclist collision in Prince George this week, after two cyclists training for the Cops for Cancer Tour de North charity bike ride were struck by an alleged hit-and-run driver on Monday.
One of the cyclists died in hospital Thursday, while the other, a Prince George RCMP officer, was rushed to hospital with serious injuries.
