Cyclist Katie Lapper was released from hospital yesterday after she was injured in a collision with a car in Oxford.

The 26-year-old was cycling along Banbury Road at 8.45am when the accident involving a white Vauxhall Astra occurred at the junction with St Giles.

At the time of the accident, Ms Lapper was on her way from Jericho to work at the Oxford Business Park in Cowley.

She said: “When I came off my bike my hip hurt and I felt really shocked.

“I’m on crutches now but I think I’m going to be okay.”
