A Lake Placid man was taken to Lee Memorial Hospital Sunday with critical injuries after being struck by a car while he was on his bicycle.
Jessie T. Zuniga, 20, of Lake Placid, was northbound on Highlands Boulevard in a 1981 Mercedes when he drove left to try and avoid the Schwinn bike that was operated by Rolando Carrillo-Sales, 20, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Carrillo-Sales, "for unknown reasons," then drove right in front of the car and was struck, the FHP said. There was no update on his condition on Monday.
