An 88-year-old man has died two weeks after being hit by two vehicles while riding his e-bike in Whitby.
The incident occurred on May 2, around Lake Ridge Road North and Taunton Road, when the man, riding a single-rider enclosed e-bike in the southbound lane, was first struck by a Jeep Wrangler. The impact caused the e-bike to cross into the northbound lane, where it was then hit by a Hyundai Veloster.
The man was rushed to a Toronto trauma center with life-threatening injuries and later died in the hospital on Thursday. The cause of the collision is still under investigation, and no arrests have been made.
Police are urging witnesses to come forward by contacting investigators at 905-579-1520 ext. 5256 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
