The bicyclist was traveling on the a sidewalk on the east side of Meridian Street in Indianapolis when he encountered a "Road Construction Ahead" sign, which obstructed nearly the entire sidewalk. He attempted to ride past the sign, but his bike came in contact with something on the base of or on the sign and lost control of his bike. As he lost balance, he leaned to the left, and the front of his bicycle went partially into the street. A bus traveling the same direction on Meridian Street was stopped at the intersection of Meridian and 29th street, and as the bus proceeded to pull forward, the bike and the front passenger side bumper of the bus collided. The bicyclist's head was crushed under the wheel of the bus, and was killed as a result of the collision.
