A bicyclist is in the hospital with life-threatening injuries after a traffic crash on 99W this morning.
Tigard Police responded to the crash, which happened at 8:33 a.m. on SW Pacific Highway (99W) just north of SW Walnut Street. Witnesses reported the cyclist was heading southbound on the sidewalk along 99W, then moved into the bike lane, crossed the southbound lanes and hit a passenger car that was heading northbound.
The cyclist, a 48-year-old man, was not wearing a helmet. Witnesses, including a nurse and responding officers, performed CPR and the man was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The involved driver stayed at the scene. Officers do not believe the driver was at fault, and while this was a tragic incident, investigators do not believe it to be criminal.
Northbound traffic was temporarily shut down on 99W from SW Walnut to Johnson Street while first responders were at the scene and is now back open.
