Facebook user Christian Strawhat D. Luffy posted what she witnessed on an early morning of May 20, 2017. The post has garnered almost 20 thousand comments, mostly about sharing what could have been done to the Biker to decrease the danger from what happened.
According to her post, a cyclist collapsed along the highway in Lalaan 1 in Silang, Cavite. The biker was almost hit by a vehicle behind him, but it was fortunate that the vehicle was able to stop right on time.
After a few moments, the biker was still able to get back on his feet, which was a relief to everyone who witnessed the incident. They assumed that the biker only lost his balance which caused the fall. But they were shocked as he fell down once more, and this time they thought that what happened is something more serious.
The witnesses didn’t have an idea whether the biker suffers from any heart ailment or if he was struck by heat stroke.The biker was not able to move or respond anymore after his second fall.
According to the witness, his eyes were still wide open, but his body became stiff and his color started to change. Several bystanders started to give him first aid, such as letting the biker smell an ointment to regain his consciousness, but this did not make the situation better.
After a few minutes, barangay officials and an ambulance responded to the scene and performed CPR to the biker. Unfortunately, they declared that the Biker no longer has a pulse, and that was the time when they rushed him to a nearby hospital.
On a separate post, Christian Strawhat shared that the biker was declared Dead on Arrival and that his body was already moved to a morgue nearby.
As of posting time, the identity of the biker is yet to be confirmed. The post contained photos of the victim and of his bike, in the hopes of the post reaching his family so they can attend to his remains. The post also aims to spread awareness in taking care of one’s health, especially when doing strenuous activities such as biking during the summer season.
