Bicyclist struck by car at Shaw and Blackstone in Fresno, police say

A bicyclist was injured early Tuesday when he was struck by a car in pre-dawn hours at one of Fresno’s busiest intersections, police reported.

The crash occurred shortly after 6 a.m. in the eastbound lanes of East Shaw Avenue just east of North Blackstone Avenue.

Police said the injuries were non life-threatening, but the rider was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

The crash took place after a bicyclist Paul Moore, 61, was killed near Woodward Park when he was stuck by a pickup on Thursday.

Eastbound lanes of Shaw were blocked for a short time after the crash.
