Cyclist killed in Toronto

Truly awful scene. I found the location on Google maps and if the cyclist was hit in the intersection then he was dragged for over 100+ feet before the truck stopped in front Loblaws. I'm trying to imagine how that is even possible? You're turning right in an intersection, hit someone, yet continue driving another half a block with a man on a bike trapped under your truck???

The driver, behind the wheel of a Ford F-250 truck, was heading west on St. Clair and turned right to go north on Yonge. At the same time, the cyclist was crossing Yonge eastbound.

"The driver of the Ford pick-up struck the cyclist and continued northbound on Yonge Street with the bike and cyclist lodged underneath the vehicle," police said in a news release Thursday morning.

Emergency services tried to free the cyclist and revive him, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
