Participating in one of his regular bike tours of the Midwest, Streetsblog Chicago editor in chief and co-founder John Greenfield was hospitalized Friday afternoon following a traffic accident in Southern Illinois.
Greenfield, 52, was bicycling at the intersection of West Deyoung and North Russell Streets in Marion, about 300 miles south of Chicago, when he was struck by a large piece of pipe that had fallen from a passing pickup truck, causing a possible head injury, according to the Marion Police Department and a Streetsblog statement shared Sunday.
