A bicyclist was injured when he was ran over by a semi-truck and left on the side of the road in South County on March 10.

Brendan Middleton, 29, said he was hit by a tractor trailer while riding his bike along a section of Lindbergh Boulevard . . .

Brendan said he was able to use his bike as a crutch to get to the side of the road. Lying on his back, he said what happened next he still can’t believe.

“The driver got out and was walking back just to see if I was alive and he realized I was alive and turns around and walks back to his truck and drove away,” said Brendan.
