Robbie,
I just spoke with somebody at the Library, the bar/cafe on Randall
between University and Johnson. Indeed, it was a bike vs. car crash,
exactly of the sort that you hypothesized: A car turned left in front
of an oncoming bicycle, and the bike ran into the windshield.
According to him, the cyclist was taken to the hospital but apparently
will recover.
However, I did not hear whether the accident occured when the bike had
a green or a red (for those who don't know the intersection, there is
a left turn arrow for westbound cars past the green for pedestrians
and eastbound bicycles).
Best regards,
Sean Cash

OH, and I forgot one more detail that made me think it was a bike
vs. car crash: broken windshield in the upper passenger side of the
car.

Approx. 8 PM, riding home tonight, saw lots of flashing lights and
multiple police cars. Randall between Johnson and University
completely closed. Circled the area on my bike, but couldn't
determine what had happened. Bike laying on the SW curb. Car with
flashers on parked headed south on Randall.
Bike vs. car? Maybe left turning car failed to yield to eastbound
bike?
Anyone know?
