An electric bicyclist was killed in an early-morning, four-vehicle crash Monday, Oct. 6, near Disney.

The crash occurred at about 6:30 a.m. near the intersection of Epcot Center Drive and Interstate 4. According to Florida Highway Patrol reports, a 40-year-old Orlando man driving an electric bicycle, a 57-year-old Orlando woman driving a 2016 Honda Civic, a 63-year-old St. Cloud man driving a 2018 Ford Fusion and a 30-year-old Orlando man driving a 2021 Toyota Camry all were traveling westbound on Epcot Center Drive west of I-4. The bicyclist traveled in front of the 2016 Honda Civic, which struck the bicycle. That caused a chain reaction with the Ford Fusion and Toyota Camry.

The bicyclist was transported to AdventHealth — Celebration Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The driver of the Civic also was transported to the hospital with minor injuries. The other drivers and the passenger in the Toyota Camry all remained on-scene.

This crash currently is under investigation.
