AURORA | An unidentified man on a bicycle was struck by a van and killed Wednesday morning on a south-central Aurora street, police reported.

Police said the man was riding south on South Kittredge Way when a southbound van struck the man and his bicycle from behind.

There is no bike lane on the street, police said.

The man was taken to a nearby hospital, where he later died from injuries sustained in the crash.

“The driver remained on scene and is cooperating with the investigation,” Aurora Police spokesperson Gabby Easterwood said in a statement. “Drugs or alcohol do not seem to be a contributing factor at this time.”

The bicyclist’s identity will be released by coroner officials at a later date.
