A 29-year-old Huntington Beach man on a bicycle was seriously injured when he was struck by an SUV while waiting for a traffic light to change at the intersection of Bushard Street and Talbert Avenue in Fountain Valley, according to a news report.
Fountain Valley police said that apparently two SUVs collided in the intersection of Bushard Street and Talbert Avenue.
