Crime Desk Traffic police are appealing for witnesses following a fatal collision in Camden on Tuesday afternoon.
At approx. 15:20hrs on Tuesday, 5 April police were called after an articulated lorry and a pedal cyclist were in collision on Camden Road near the junction with St Pancras Way, NW1.
Officers and ambulance services attended but the cyclist, a 20-year-old woman, was pronounced dead at the scene. Next of kin have been informed.
Whilst officers believe they know who the victim they await a formal identification.
A post mortem examination has been scheduled for Friday, 8 April. An inquest is expected to open and adjourn at St Pancras Coroners Court on Tuesday, 12 April.
The Road Death Investigation Unit at Alperton Traffic Garage is carrying out enquiries into the circumstances of the incident.
At this early stage it is understood the blue coloured articulated lorry, reg. KE54 JCX, was turning left into St Pancras Way when it collided with the cyclist, who was on its nearside (passenger side).
Any witnesses to the collision or the events leading to the collision, or anyone with any information are asked to call the Road Death Investigation Unit on 020 8998 9319.
The Met police have confirmed that the driver of the lorry, a 65-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving. He was subsequently bailed until early June pending further enquiries
