A cyclist has died after being hit by a lorry at the junction of Freeman Street and Wellington Street in Grimsby this morning.
Police were initially called at 4.38am after a Kingsmill lorry collided with the cyclist who officers have said is a man in his 20s.
The driver of the lorry, a man in his 40s, was not injured and is currently being interviewed about the accident.
A red Trax mountain bike was by the side of the road, the back wheel was significantly bent out of shape as was the frame of the cycle itself.
Road closures that were in place in the Freeman Street area this morning have now been lifted.
Road Policing Inspector Maxine Teasdale said: "We're still in the very early stages of the investigation, we're appealing for witnesses to come forward and we'll also be checking the nearby CCTV footage.
"People would have been making their way to work at that time and that's what we believe was the case with the man involved in the accident.
"We hope to re-open the road within the hour."
