VVNG member Brooke Bollinger commented in a group post and said she saw the whole thing.” I stop and ran to the man on the bike. My daughter called 911. This is absolutely heartbreaking. Prayers to him.”

CHP closed all lanes for the investigation and traffic was detoured at Cleghorn Road creating a massive backup. Motorists have been sitting in traffic for about two hours. At about 10:46 am, CHP logs reported the closure would be picked up.

The California Highway Patrol is investigating the collision. This story is developing and information will be updated as it becomes available.
