Peaceful Bike Ride Ends Tragically

A couple out for a peaceful bike ride with twenty others were sent to the hospital after being struck by a minivan.

Several 911 calls were placed to a police department in Los Angeles, California when the couple was struck. However, officers soon learned that the minivan was not to blame for the incident, but rather the vehicle that struck it from behind. As a result of the impact, the minivan was forced into the middle of an intersection at the very moment that couple was cycling through.

When emergency medical crews arrived, they found the husband to be in serious condition. He was deemed to have suffered a head trauma and is still listed in critical condition. His wife sustained moderate injuries that were treated on the scene. Both cyclists have their helmets to thank for saving their lives.
