CHICO — At 5:37 a.m., a vehicle heading eastbound on Ninth Street collided with a bicyclist southbound on Oroville Avenue in Chico.
“We’re still investigating the primary collision factor as to who’s at fault,” Chico Police Department Sgt. Todd Lefkowitz said.
The bicyclist sustained critical injuries. He is currently at Enloe Medical Center being treated.
It does not appear that alcohol or drugs were a factor for the driver of the vehicle, but it is so far unknown if the bicyclist was impaired at all. The driver of the vehicle has been released.
Police, firefighters and medical personnel responded immediately, while the Major Accident Investigation Team was not called in until 7:30 a.m. The bicyclist initially did not appear to have any injuries until he got to the hospital. Scans showed internal bleeding.
Ninth Street and Broadway are blocked off eastbound, while Eighth Street and Broadway are blocked off southbound. It is estimated the roadway will open back up at around noon.
