Bicyclist Killed in Burlingame Crash Identified

The 75-year-old bicyclist was killed in a collision with a truck on Monday.

A 75-year-old bicyclist who was killed in a collision with a truck in Burlingame on Monday afternoon has been identified by the San Mateo County coroner's office as Andrew Chiari.

Chiari, a Burlingame resident, was riding south on Cortez Avenue when he apparently tried to make a left turn near the 1100 block of that street at about 12:15 p.m., Burlingame police said.

He hit the side of a truck that was driving next to him, and the truck ran over him, causing fatal injuries, police said.

Chiari was pronounced dead at the scene. The truck driver stopped and cooperated with police, and has not been cited.

I see that I meant to type "...that connect us to the past," but I accidentally typedRead More "...and connect us to the past." I think my meaning came through, though. Yes, the world does not need another national chain retail store or restaurant, which is surely what they're planning to put in there.

Yes Bren, agree with you....good point.....really what it seems to come down to is money vs. theRead More good of the community and richness of traditions. And all despite the Master Plan for that site in San Mateo that seems to require an ice skating rink or similar recreational facility AT THAT SITE, and all despite the fact the Ice Chalet would like to continue operations there. The Developer has made it difficult to impossible for any ice rink to operate there (tricky it seems)....so they can get a cookie cutter retail outlet in ? .....very, very sad for the youth of the community.

I think the issue is much larger than whether children will experience stress. That ice rink is aRead More local institution, dating back at least to when Fashion Island was there. It's terrible for communities to lose so many landmarks and connect us to the past.
