A vehicle lured a pedestrian tourist in Paphos resulting in his injury.
According to information from the Cyprus Times, the French tourist attempted to cross Agion Anargyron Avenue in Paphos yesterday afternoon, using the pedestrian crossing - which is controlled by traffic lights - when at some point, under circumstances under investigation, he was swept away by a vehicle driven by a 61-year-old Greek Cypriot.
The pedestrian, who is on holiday in Cyprus, was walking along the avenue near the church of the same name, attempting to cross to the opposite side of the road.
As a result, the tourist was injured and taken for treatment to Paphos Hospital where he sustained fractures, mainly injuries, and was kept in hospital for observation.
The driver of the vehicle was subjected to an alcohol test with a zero reading.
Paphos traffic police are continuing investigations.
