The tram service running in the city of Valencia suffered suspensions earlier today, Sunday, June 12, after a cyclist was run over by a Metrovalencia tram. According to 112 Emergencies, the incident occurred at around 3pm.

As 112 reported to levante-emv.com, one of their operators received an emergency call informing them of an accident that had taken place at the Pont de Fusta stop in the city, involving a tram and a cyclist who appeared to have been run over.

A passenger travelling on the tram was also reportedly injured after suffering a knock to her shoulder during the sudden impact and braking that occurred following the collision. Both the woman and the cyclist were transferred to the Clinical Hospital for treatment.
