San Diego, CA (December 1, 2024) – A 17-year-old male riding an e-bike was seriously injured Saturday after colliding with a vehicle in Bay Park, authorities said.
According to the San Diego Police Department, the teen was riding an off-road Surron northbound in the 2600 block of Fairfield Street around 5:10 p.m. At that same time, a 41-year-old man was driving a 2001 Mercedes E320 southbound in the 2700 block of Fairfield Street.
Police said the Mercedes and the e-bike approached the intersection of Fairfield Street and Huxley Street going in opposite directions. The Mercedes then made a left turn onto eastbound Huxley Street and was involved in a collision with the e-bike.
The teen was ejected from the e-bike during the crash and sustained a cerebral air embolism, as well as multiple facial fractures. He was transported to a local hospital for treatment, though his current condition is unknown. However, no further details were released in the meantime, and an investigation is still ongoing. Witnesses were asked to step forward as soon as possible.
