Cyclist, 67, Killed in Hit-and-Run on Devon Avenue 9-23-18

 . . . May Jesse Rodriguez Rest in Peace !  . . .

1-3-19. It now appears that CDOT will not recognize the death of Jesse Rodriguez as an on-street cycling fatality for 2018 in the official city records. CDOT is ruling he was a pedestrian at the time of his death because he was not in motion cycling when the driver of the vehicle ended his life by crashing into him.
