Happened 16:00 - 16:30 today.
A brompton bike or similar in the road, and a white adult male on the stretcher. Whatever hit the rider was not there anymore when I passed the scene. Saw an ambulance or two, an ambulance helicopter and a few bicycle ambulance crews.
It was right by the Odeon cinema in the Covent Garden part of Shaftesbury Avenue, a bit strange since that is a straight strech of road with about 20 metres to the nearest sidestreets and crossing.
I think I saw some movement from the person on the stretcher so let's hope for the best.
