Savannah News

Savannah Police’s Traffic Investigation Unit is investigating an early morning crash January 28, 2019, that resulted in the death of a bicyclist. The deceased has been identified as Robert Fristoe, 63, of Savannah, Savannah Morning News is reporting.

Savannah police told WTOC 11 “around 4:40 a.m., officers responded to Oglethorpe Avenue at Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and discovered the bicyclist suffering from life-threatening injuries. He was transported to Memorial where he died as a result of his injuries.”

Savannah Police Department officials told WTOC 11 “a Dodge Ram 2500 was making a left turn at the same time the bicyclist entered the intersection.  The truck struck the bicyclist.”

It is unclear whether the driver will be facing charges.
