Man Hit by Pavement Cyclist in Ilkeston Road Crash
A 50-year-old man was knocked down by a cyclist riding on the pavement as he stepped out of a shop in Lenton’s Ilkeston Road.
The collision, which happened around 5.45pm on 4 March 2023, left the man with minor injuries.
Police Launch Probe and Seek Witness
Nottinghamshire Police have launched an investigation and released images of a man they believe holds crucial information.
“It’s illegal for anyone to ride a bike on the pavement precisely because of incidents like this,” said Sergeant Mark Southgate.
“While the victim only suffered minor injuries on this occasion, this should serve as a warning to any cyclist about what could happen.”
“We believe the man in these pictures could have information to assist our investigation, so we’d ask anyone who recognises him to get in touch.”
How to Help the Investigation
Anyone with information is urged to call Nottinghamshire Police on 101, quoting incident 674 of 4 March 2023.
