NICE – A 12-year-old boy involved in a collision last week while riding his bicycle has died.

The boy, who lived in Nice, died of his injuries on Saturday, according to a Monday report from California Highway Patrol Officer Adam Garcia.

The child had been riding his bicycle on Manzanita Avenue at Highway 20 shortly before 8 p.m. Wednesday when he was struck by a van, as Lake County News has reported.

The CHP said the boy was not wearing a helmet at the time of the collision.

The child was immediately transported to for treatment to the Children's Hospital of Oakland, where he died.

Garcia said that, out of respect for the family and because he's a juvenile, the child's name is not being released at this time.
