Jonathan Gomez Rosas, 22, was riding his bike north of Mel Torme Way along Sammy Davis Jr. Drive when a flatbed truck going the same direction hit his bicycle, causing it to flip, police said.

A witness told police a shuttle bus then hit Gomez Rosas and drove away, police said. Gomez Rosas died at University Medical Center.
