A man died in a pickup versus bicycle accident Tuesday night on Highway 42 in Green.

An Oregon State Police report said just before 8:30 p.m. troopers responded to the crash at the intersection with Grant Smith Road.

A preliminary investigation indicated a pickup, operated by a Winston man, was traveling west in the fast lane of the roadway, when it struck 34-year old Michael Allen Davis. The bicycle was traveling south across the highway. Davis was transported by ambulance to CHI Mercy Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased by medical personnel. The driver of the pickup immediately stopped and fully cooperated with the investigation.

OSP was assisted by the Winston Police Department, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Fire District No. 2, the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Douglas County Medical Examiner’s Office.
