Cyclist Killed In Crash On Fort Collins Road

Reporting

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (CBS4) ― A 20-year-old Colorado State University Student is accused of driving under the influence when he crashed into a cyclist in Fort Collins, killing the 32-year-old woman.

Rebecca Allen was wearing a helmet and using flashlights during her routine morning ride earlier this week.

The crash on West Drake Road sent Allen into a light pole. A friend riding with her was able to walk away after also being hit.

The car's driver, Daniel Price, told officers he had been drinking, police said.

"Someone who is an adult at 20, who chose not to be responsible," said Cindy Kristin, a professor at CSU who worked with Allen. Allen was an undergraduate advisor for students in the school's journalism program.

Police haven't said how fast Price was driving. Investigators hope to have results back from a blood alcohol test later on Wednesday.
