A young child seriously injured his leg after allegedly being "struck" by a cyclist riding on a footpath.
The alleged incident took place about 8pm on Saturday, January 20, outside the Casey Jones Pub in Canberra's north.
"It was a nasty collision," a police spokesperson said.
The cyclist was reportedly riding on the footpath outside the pub when he and the child allegedly collided.
