SALEM, Ore. (AP) — A 72-year-old Oregon bicyclist struck and dragged about 150 feet by a truck was cited for unsafe operation of a bicycle on a sidewalk.

The Statesman Journal reports that Antonio Bedolla Calvillo was riding his bicycle Thursday morning when he was struck by truck towing an equipment trailer as the driver was making a turn.

Salem police said the driver became aware he had struck Calvillo after motorists repeatedly waved at him, pointing to the bottom of the truck.

Calvillo was treated and released from Salem Hospital.
