Phoenix bicycle accident claims life of 58-year-old man

An Arizona bike accident has resulted in the death of a 58-year-old man whose name has not been released, according to AZCentral.com. The bicyclist was struck by one car and then dragged under a second car in the area of 7th Street and Purdue Avenue last Saturday.

The victim was riding a mountain bike headed northeast when he was hit by a 46-year-old motorist who was driving a 1991 Nissan Pathfinder moving northbound.

The bicyclist landed in the path of a 2005 Ford escape being driven by a 33-year-old man that was also moving northbound. The bike rider was dragged by the Ford until the vehicle stopped.

Neither driver was impaired and no traffic tickets have yet been issued.

It is not been reported if an Arizona injury lawyer is involved in the case.
