Reports came in early this morning to CMR of a traffic fatality involving a cyclist.
Police can now confirm that shortly before 5:30 am the 9-1-1 Communications center dispatched fire and emergency services to a report a male cyclist found unresponsive on North Church Street in the vicinity of Coral Sands. The man was located and appeared to have been struck by a vehicle; he was taken to hospital where he has been pronounced dead.
