A middle-aged cyclist was left bloodied and bruised after being knocked off his bike in Bickerstaffe earlier this morning.
Three police officers in a car and van attended the Ormskirk Road roundabout at around 8am; a number of drivers stopped to tend the man while awaiting paramedics.
An NWAS PR officer commented: "One of our ambulances took a man in his 50s to hospital.
"He didn't suffer serious injuries."
