Colorado state troopers are investigating a fatal accident involving a car and a bicycle in Lefthand Canyon.

Boulder County sheriff's dispatchers said Colorado State Patrol will be handling the investigation.

Trooper Heather Cobler said the accident occurred at Lefthand Canyon and Lee Hill drives just after noon. She said she believed the victim was the cyclist, but hadn't yet confirmed that.
According to police radio traffic, a medical helicopter was en route to the scene of the accident, but it was cancelled and the Boulder County Coroner's Office was paged.

Lefthand Canyon Drive is closed while police investigate the accident.
