A woman was killed Monday evening after being hit by a semi-truck while riding her bicycle near downtown Fort Collins, according to Fort Collins Police.

The woman, still unidentified, was found by officers at approximately 6:20 p.m. at the intersection of East Mulberry St. and Whedbee St. in response to a 911 call. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police report that the truck driver remained at the scene following the fatal crash.

The semi-truck was part of an ongoing construction project along a stretch of Mulberry St., according to the press release.
