Cyclist DOWN! - 21st and Nueces @ 9am this morning

Does anyone know anything about this?

This morning at 9am a bicyclist was face down in the middle of 21st st. and Nueces, one shoe off, and his mangled bike posted against a curb. When I rode up, there was one officer on the scene, walking towards the young man. Standing a respective distance around the intersection, there were a lot of students, construction workers, and a middle aged woman crying hysterically. In the next five minutes I did not see him move at all. A few cop cars, a couple firetrucks, and an EMT arrived. It wasn't until the paramedics' cut his shirt off, flipped him over on to a gurney, that I believe I saw some movement from his hands/arms.

Does anyone know more about this?
It's been on my mind all day. I hope the guy is ok after such a traumatic morning.

Sounds rather brutal. If anyone has any details or knows if the guy is ok or not, please let me know. I ride through that exact intersection at least once, usually twice a day while riding to and from work. Any information about this incident would be appreciated.
