Vigil Held For Bicyclist Killed In Boston Accident

BOSTON (CBS) -- A vigil was held near the intersection where a bicyclist was struck and killed by a truck a few weeks ago.

Cyclists remembered 38-year-old Cambridge resident and doctor Anita Kurmann on Thursday.

The Swiss researcher, who was working in Boston, was hit by the rear wheel of a flatbed truck as it turned off Massachusetts Avenue onto Beacon Street around 7:05 a.m. on Aug. 8.

A symbolic ghost bike and flowers were left in the Boston University graduate's memory.
