A 20-year-old man died in an accident on his motorised bicycle in Luqa yesterday evening.
The man was riding from Marsa to Luqa on Valletta Road at about 6.45 p.m. when he crashed head-on into a Toyota Avensis coming in the opposite direction, the police said.
Both, however, were on the same lane, the police added.
The injured cyclist, from Luqa, was rushed to Mater Dei Hospital where he died soon afterwards while the car driver, aged 48 from Paola, suffered from shock.
An inquiry is being held by Magistrate Doreen Clarke.
