Peel Police say the 19-year-old who was killed last night in a head-on collision with a MiWay bus was traveling at a high rate of speed alongside another cyclist just before the accident occurred.

"We can't say for sure that it was street-racing at this point but we can say that two motorcycles were travelling side-by-side at a high rate of speed before the accident occurred," Cst. George Tudos said this morning.

Police will be setting up a mobile command post at the scene this afternoon to encourage any witnesses to come forward.

They are hoping passersby at the time may have seen how the two motorcycles were being operated just prior to the collision.

The cyclists were traveling southbound on Mississauga Rd., a short distance north of Dundas St.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene. The impact of the collision broke the headlights of the transit bus and left its right-front side caved in.

The name of the dead man will be released in a press release later today.

Anyone with information is asked to call the major collision bureau at 905-453-2121, ext. 3410 of Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
