Renton Bicyclist Hit by Vehicle, Seriously Injured

A man was seriously hurt Thursday evening when he was struck by a vehicle in Renton while riding his bicycle.

Renton police said they and Renton fire units were called to the 200 block of Logan Avenue North, near Renton Memorial Stadium, just after 5 p.m. after multiple reports of the collision. First responders found the man unconscious and unresponsive.

Police said initial indications are that the man was riding across lanes of traffic on Logan, in the middle of the block, when a vehicle traveling on the street struck him. It appears that the vehicle was traveling the posted speed limit, police said.

The man was not wearing a helmet and hasn’t been identified, police said. He was taken to a hospital with serious injuries.
