SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Three cyclists have been attacked, hit with rocks while riding along the American River Parkway.
This week, two people were hit by rocks as they rode on the bike trail near the Woodlake neighborhood, which is north of Downtown Sacramento.
Two weeks ago, a bicyclist says a homeless man grabbed his bike, then smashed him in the head with a rock.
Park rangers and Sacramento Police are investigating, and don't believe they are related, but the suspects are all described as homeless.
In Wednesday's attack, the victim—Kevin Meagher—says the passing cyclist threw the rock. Meagher suffered a collapsed lung and was released from the hospital on Friday.
