KING TOWNSHIP, Ont. — York Regional Police say they believe they have identified a cyclist killed in a collision in the township of King this week.

The officer came across a vehicle that had rolled over and found a deceased man and a bicycle believed to belong to him nearby.
Around 9 a.m. that day, officers located a man believed to be the driver of the vehicle who was walking in the area of 15th Sideroad.
