A cyclist is fighting for his life after being hit by a bus in north London.
The man, who is believed to be in his 60s, was struck at the junction of Stamford Hill and Clapton Common at around 5.20pm yesterday.
Witnesses said they thought he went under the bus.
Solicitor Irfan Kunes, 30, said: “I think the bus went over him as his chest looked as if it had gone in.
“It was a number 67 bus, which stopped and police kept it there for ages.
“Paramedics tried to revive him at the scene and an air ambulance landed in the middle of the junction but they didn’t take him away in it so we thought he hadn’t made it.”
Dominos manager Shan Ramachandran, 32, said: “I couldn’t see the man properly as there were so many people crowding round but he looked badly injured. There was a lot of blood. Then the ambulance came and took him away.”
The victim, who has not been named, is in a critical condition in hospital.
Police are now appealing for witnesses to come forward.
Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to call police on 020 8597 4874.
