A man killed Thursday evening while riding his bicycle on West 22nd Street near South Sixth Avenue has been identified as 49-year-old, Alexander Nuñez, police said.
Nuñez was hit by a van in the eastbound lanes of 22nd Street at about 5 p.m., said Officer Linda Galindo, a Tucson Police Department spokeswoman.
According to a police, the driver of a Ford passenger van was eastbound on 22nd Street, just east of 6th Avenue. Nuñez was riding his bicycle across 22nd Street, in a northeast direction, and rode into the path of the van.
The driver of the van was unable to stop in time and struck Nuñez, police said. No citations have been issued.
Detectives are awaiting toxicology results to determine if drugs and/or alcohol were a factor in this collision. Speed does not appear to have been a factor. Nuñez was not wearing a helmet, police said.
