A bicyclist was hit Saturday afternoon in Silver Lake near Riverside Drive and the 5 Freeway.
She was wearing a helmet and escaped with minor injuries, according to City News Service.
She collided with what looked to be a silver pickup truck just before 3 p.m. near the intersection of Fletcher and Riverside drives in Silver Lake.
An early alert from the Los Angeles Fire Department suggested she may have been trapped beneath a vehicle, but that was not the case.
She was transported by LAFD to Glendale Memorial Hospital, according to a spokesperson at the LAPD's Central Traffic Division, which handled the incident.
Traffic was backed up briefly along Fletcher Drive going north while paramedics and police investigated the incident.
