A 59-year-old cyclist ordering food at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Oakville, Ont. suffered “life-altering injuries” after a car jumped a curb and pinned him against the pick up window Wednesday night.

Halton Regional Police said the incident took place just before 7 p.m. Wednesday at the fast food chain located at 1500 Upper Middle Rd. West, near Third Line and Upper Middle Road.

Police said the man was completing an order on a bicycle, when a Grey BMW driven by a 75-year-old lost control and pinned him against the building.

The cyclist was taken to Hamilton General Hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

The driver of the vehicle was initially arrested at the scene but later released. There’s no word yet if any charges will be laid.

Witnesses of the collision are encouraged to call the Collision Reconstruction Unit at 905-825-4747 ext. 5065 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
