Details:

At 12:58 PM, officers were dispatched to a vehicle vs. bicyclist collision at 31784 Casino Drive. Responding officers arrived at 12:59 PM and located the bicyclist on the roadway edge. The bicyclist suffered multiple serious injuries. He was transported to Inland Valley Medical Center by responding paramedics. The victim, a nineteen-year-old Wildomar man, was rushed to surgery, where he later succumbed to his injuries. His identity is being withheld pending family notifications.

Preliminary investigate efforts indicate the bicyclist left his place of employment on his BMX style bicycle. He entered Casino drive at a right angle, apparently attempting to cross in a westerly direction. He crossed directly into the path of a full-size Chevrolet work van, and was struck by the right front corner of the van, as the driver attempted to avoid the collision. The driver offered full cooperation with investigators and was later released from the scene.

The roadway was partially closed for the investigation across northbound lanes and is scheduled to be re-opened at approximately 1930 hours.

The investigation is ongoing and anyone with additional information is encouraged to call the Lake Elsinore Police Department at 951 245-3300.
