“A 47-year-old male tipper truck driver is arrested for driving without reasonable consideration causing death,” they said, adding that investigations were ongoing.
Earlier that day, another cyclist was involved in an accident with a taxi at the junction of Kaki Bukit Avenue 2 and Eunos Link.
The 52-year-old man was taken conscious to Changi General Hospital, and the 64-year-old male taxi driver is assisting with police investigations.
