Default Red light-jumping cyclist seriously injures woman

A Halifax woman is in hospital with life-threatening injuries after a
cyclist blew through a red light and crashed into her, police say.

The woman was crossing the street at a crosswalk at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday
night when the cyclist struck her. The collision threw the 56-year-old woman
into the air and she hit her head as she landed on the pavement.

Witnesses told police the cyclist went through a red light.

The 49-year-old man remained at the scene. Police said he was arrested and
faces charges of violating a court order as well as numerous charges under
the Motor Vehicle Act.
