Teenage Boy Hit by Car on Way to South Tahoe High School Monday Morning

A young man was treated and released for minor injuries Monday morning after he was hit by a car as he rode his bike to school on Viking Way.

A parent was leaving South Tahoe High after dropping off her student near the Student Union. As she was exiting the side road coming up from the tennis courts she stopped at the stop sign. It was very congested as it was 7:50 a.m., the start of school. The parent didn't see the bicyclist coming up on her left and entered the road way, striking the boy.

As a precaution he was transported to the hospital with bruises and abrasions.

According to South Lake Tahoe Police Lieutenant David Stevenson, no citations were issued.
