A female cyclist is in the hospital with serious injuries after she was hit by a vehicle Sunday evening, police say.

Police were called to Bayview Avenue and Foxwarren Drive near Bayview Village, in the Bayview Avenue and Sheppard Avenue East area, just before 4 p.m. after receiving reports of a collision.

A woman was found at the scene with lower body injuries, “possibly in the leg,” said Toronto Police media officer Allyson Douglas-Cook.

The victim was then taken to hospital. The vehicle in connection with the collision also hit a nearby hydro pole, police said in a tweet.

The driver remained at the scene, Douglas-Cook said.

Douglas-Cook could not confirm the circumstances of the collision, but said police are investigating.

The road is closed northbound at Bayview Avenue and Sheppard Avenue East, police said.
