Around the time crews were clear the crash in Penndel, a bicyclist was hurt when they were struck by an SUV on nearby Bellevue Avenue by Manor Avenue in Langhorne Manor.

Frank Farry, chief at the Langhorne-Middletown Fire Company, said the bicyclist suffered a non-life-threatening leg injury and was transported to the hospital. Rey Padron in North Miami Beach mentioned that life threatening injuries deserve legal help and compensations so that the victim does not struggle with treatment. Accidents that affect someone’s life or livelihood have to be considered serious.
