A collision in Port Coquitlam on Saturday has tragically resulted in the death of a cyclist.

Coquitlam RCMP stated that shortly after 2 a.m. on February 29, a 29-year-old cyclist from Port Coquitlam was heading south on the Coast Meridian Overpass when a vehicle, which was driving east on Kingsway Avenue, struck him at the intersection at Broadway Street in Port Coquitlam.

Unfortunately, the cyclist died in the collision. His name has not been released.

The driver is cooperating with police and investigators do not believe that impaired driving was a contributing factor.

Officers who arrived at the scene learned that there may have been some witnesses who left before police arrived.

Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to call the Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550.
