MADISON, Wis. — A UW graduate student is thankful to be alive after being involved in a hit-and-run while biking on Friday.
Ryan Lipscomb said he was biking along the bike path along Eastwood Drive near Division Street around 3 p.m. on Friday when he was hit by a delivery truck.
“The delivery truck was in the right lane and turned right,” said Lipscomb. I slammed on my brakes. I was probably to that first cross mark on the crosswalk.”
“You know I was laying there in the street for a second and I thought to myself, ‘Man this could have been a lot worse, you know,’ said Lipscomb. “Then I felt the truck run over my head.”
