A Morris-Turnberry driver has been charged after hitting a cyclist.
On the afternoon of January 28, Huron County OPP alongside the Huron County Paramedic Services and the North Huron Fire Department responded to a location on Amberley Road, west of Wingham for a report of an injured cyclist.
Crews arrived and found a 73-year-old cyclist with serious injuries. The driver of an SUV that struck the cyclist remained on-scene. The cyclist was transported to a local hospital where their injuries were deemed to be non-life-threatening.
Police determined both the SUV and cyclist were going eastbound on Amberley Road when the SUV struck the cyclist.
As a result of the investigation, the 54-year-old SUV driver from Morris-Turnberry has been charged with Careless Driving Causing Bodily Harm.
The accused is scheduled to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Goderich to answer to the charge.
