On Monday around 6:20 p.m., deputies from the Ulster County Sheriff's Office responded to a report of a bicyclist who was hit by a vehicle on Route 9W just south of Waterside Garden Road in Ulster Park.

A preliminary investigation at the scene revealed that a white 2013 Ford F-150 driven by 33-year-old Michael C. Brailey of Red Hook left the roadway, for an unknown reason, and struck a man on a bicycle, police say.
