This morning, via Andrew Beuajon at City Paper
Three eyewitnesses tell me the cyclist was struck by a news van. I'm waiting for confirmation from the station they told me the van belonged to. One guy said the cyclist wasn't wearing a helmet and ran a red light. He said there was a lot of blood.
This is the same street that will, hopefully get a more bike friendly design. DCist has a better picture of it than I do.
Update: It was an NBC4 van, and witnesses report it was a fixed-gear bike. The crash occurred at Sherman and Euclid, NW
Looks like the City Paper article has somebody who's doing his best Kornheiser impersonator in the comments section.
