However, CHP reports indicate that a cyclist was killed in a collision with a big rig truck at around 9:54 this morning at the intersection of South Atlantic and East Olympic Boulevards in East L.A.

Is this open season now for cyclists? What is wrong with all these drivers?
Aww. man.
Did you find details of that crash?
It wasn’t the drivers felt.. The cycleist was on his cell phone & he tried to beat the truck, the truck had already started to turn before the cycleist got to the intersection driver had no idea he hit him people had to stop the driver
Thanks @Gilbert. Was the cyclist hooked when passing on right, or cyclist running light, or …. ?
Gilbert has a lot more information than I have; I haven’t even been able to officially confirm that there was a collision, let alone a fatality.
