As reported in Todays Times newspaper.


"A cyclist became the sixth fatality in nine days on Britain’s roads this morning after a collision with a London bus.
The man was riding along Whitechapel High Street, East London, at around 11.30pm last night when he was hit by the double-decker at the junction with Commercial Road, part of the “Cycle Superhighway 2” route through London."

That's the same accident as in the thread about the 5th killed on London's roads in nine days, and it happened over two days ago on Wednesday.

If your post is correct, The Times have added a death from elsewhere in the UK and inaccurately said that London one was last night.
