The mishap happened at the entrance to a gas station 

Editor:  A cyclist was left lying on the pavement of the Chapala-Jocotepec highway, after being hit by a pickup truck. 

The victim was riding on the bicycle path in the La Canacinta area during the afternoon of March 23, when he was surprised by a truck accessing the entrance to the gas station.  Apparently, the driver of a beige Jeep-type truck did not notice the cyclist. 

The victim was attended by Red Cross personnel, prior to being evaluated by Chapala Fire Department personnel, while a traffic police officer investigated the accident.
