Here’s a roundup of recent incidents from Ventura County agencies:
Teen bicyclists hit by car
CAMARILLO — Two teenage bicyclists were struck by a car at the Camarillo Premium Outlets Friday afternoon, with one suffering serious injuries, according to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office
The accident, reported shortly before 12:25 p.m., blocked an entrance to the mall in the 500 block of East Ventura Boulevard, located south of Highway 101 in Camarillo.
The teens, both male, were riding on Promenade Drive, which separates two large parking lots at the shopping center, when they were hit by a Chevrolet Bolt, authorities said.
One teen was pinned under the small electric hatchback. He was transported to a hospital with serious injuries, said Cmdr. Eric Tennessen.
Firefighters’ radio traffic from the scene indicated the teen was found unresponsive.
The second teen was transported to a hospital with minor injuries, Tennessen said.
The woman driving the car stayed at the scene and cooperated with investigators, officials said.
The incident closed Promenade Drive for a time as Ventura County Fire engines, sheriff’s vehicles and ambulance crews staged behind yellow police tape. One bicycle could be seen lying on its side in the roadway and a second was leaning against bushes in the center median.
One bystander said she saw emergency crews performing CPR on the teen pulled from under the car before he was transported by ambulance.
On Saturday, sheriff’s officials said the teens had been riding westbound across Promenade when they were struck. No update was available on the condition of the seriously injured rider, who remained hospitalized, officials said. The incident remained under investigation.
Anyone who saw the collision is asked to contact the sheriff’s traffic investigator, Deputy Anthony Zacarias, at 805-388-5126.
