A FOURTEEN-year-old cyclist was fighting for his life in hospital after being caught in the aftermath of a two-car collision in Eastleigh's Stoneham Lane.
The boy from the Swaythling area of Southampton suffered serious head, leg and arm injuries in the crash which happened at 1.10pm near the entrance to Eastleigh Football Club last Sunday.
An Eastleigh police traffic spokesman said the youngster was in a coma in intensive care at Southampton General Hospital. Police are not naming him at this stage.
The accident happened when a Peugeot 206 driven by a 27-year-old woman from the Portsmouth area was in collision with a red Renault Clio driven by a 23-year-old female from Bedfordshire.
Police said the Clio crossed the road after the initial collision and collided with the cyclist. There were passengers in both vehicles but no one from the cars was injured.
Any witnesses should ring 0845 045 4545 and ask for Eastleigh traffic section.
