A bike tire is seen in this stock image. (Milada Vigerova/ A senior cyclist was struck and killed by a pickup truck in the Vancouver Island community of Nanoose Bay on Friday, according to police. The Oceanside RCMP says first responders were called to Marina Way near Carmel Place around 10:50 a.m. after a collision involving multiple cyclists and a Ford pickup truck. Two cyclists were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to police. A third died at the scene. Police say the deceased is a 79-year-old man from Qualicum Beach. 'While all of the contributing factors into this collision are still being determined, the initial investigation indicates that the pickup truck entered onto Marina Way from a side street and collided with the cyclists who were riding on Marina Way,' Mounties wrote in a news release Saturday. 'Drugs and alcohol on the part of the pickup truck driver and the cyclists have been excluded as contributing factors. The pickup driver remained on scene and is co-operating with the investigation.' RCMP collision analysts and the BC Coroners Service are investigating the crash, and police ask anyone with information or video to call 250-248-6111.
