JAMES CITY CO., Va. — A James City County man has died after he was hit by an SUV while riding an electric bike, commonly referred to as an "e-bike," last week, according to county officials.
This happened around 6 a.m. on Nov. 18 when the bicyclist was on Ironbound Road and entered the intersection of Monticello Avenue and Casey Boulevard against a red traffic signal, officials say. He was hit by an SUV that was traveling through the intersection with a steady green traffic signal, officials added.
The SUV driver stopped immediately, along with several witnesses, and called 911.
After first responders gave medical aid to the 62-year-old bicyclist, he was airlifted to the Medical Center of Virginia in Richmond. He died on Nov. 25, officials say.
The driver of the SUV will not be charged.
