A cyclist was seriously hurt in a crash on Thursday evening.
The 40-year-old victim allegedly ran into a curb at a high rate of speed and fell over. He was not wearing a helmet.
Toronto Police believe that the cyclist was heading south on Caledonia Park Road around 8:18pm. He was trying to make the green light at Davenport Road, a T-shaped intersection.
However, the light changed and the cyclist allegedly took a sharp left onto Davenport, heading eastbound in the westbound curb lane.
He then hit the curb and lost control of the bicycle. He fell to the roadway and sustained life-threatening head injuries.
Due to the serious nature of the injury, investigators believe that he was not wearing a helmet.
