Thanks to the readers who have texted about an incident blocking the intersection at 20th and Henderson. It was listed as a medic response on the Seattle Fire 911 log; SFD tells us it’s a crash involving a bicycle rider. We’re headed to the scene to try to find out more.

Sorry, got sidetracked. The scene was clear when we got there. Which would at least mean it wasn’t a case of life-threatening injuries, or else the major investigation team would have been called.

Hi, Do we know if this was a man or woman ? I have a loved one who is on their bike at that intersection at that time.

Tom, I rode by shortly after it happened, while first responders were busy with the down cyclist. It appeared to be a man outfitted in a cycling kit (shorts and jersey). The police were waving people around so I didn’t get a clear look, sorry I can’t be more specific.
