GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) – A lawsuit filed against the City of Grand Rapids charges gross negligence in the death of a bicyclist back in May.
Gregory Siemion died after being hit by a garbage truck pulling out onto Bridge Street.

The lawsuit says the driver should have been more aware and cites several mishaps dating back to 1995.
