PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — A 47-year-old bicyclist has died after being struck by a car in Beaverton.
Beaverton police spokeswoman Pam Yazzolino says the bicyclist was stopped in the westbound curb lane when he was hit from behind by a Toyota Prius Saturday night.
The Oregonian newspaper reports the bicyclist was taken to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center, where he died on the operating table.
Yazzolino says it was unclear why the bicyclist was stopped in the traffic lane. She says the driver was not expected to be cited, but the investigation was continuing.
