One witness said they saw the truck stop at the side of the road and then speed away.
"When the truck left, I saw a man lying on the road. I jumped to help him, he was semi-conscious and his bike was made in two pieces”. “I left when the paramedics were loading [Bozzone] into the ambulance. He was conscious but he seemed to be in a lot of pain.".

An Instagram post uploaded to Bozzone's account on Tuesday night said the athlete was in the emergency department, where his injuries were still being evaluated.
