A biker was being transported to a Boston hospital in stable condition after being pinned under a garbage truck Tuesday, police said.
According to Edgartown police officer Michael Gazaille, a Bruno’s garbage truck was traveling on south on Katama Road when the driver made a left-hand turn onto a road across from Katama General Store.
The garbage truck collided with a man riding a bike on the bike path, Officer Gazaille said, and the biker was pinned under the truck for 15 to 20 minutes. The accident took place at about 12:45 p.m.
