An investigation is underway after a bicyclist was struck and killed in Cleveland on Wednesday morning.
Cleveland police say a truck struck the bicyclist near West 114th Street and Franklin Boulevard just before 9:30 a.m. Wednesday.
EMS pronounced the victim dead at the scene.
The Cleveland Police Department said the driver who hit the bicyclist remained at the scene and cooperated with the investigation.
“I’ve seen a lot of close calls, and something needs to change at this intersection,” said Samantha Touarti, a woman who lives nearby.
Touarti said the intersection where the deadly accident happened has been problematic for years.
“It’s common for people to speed through a red light. I’ve had people go around me when I’m stopped at a red light just to run it, and it happens all the time,” Touarti said.
