Cyclist Ronan Auge in medically induced coma after crash

#sports #brief

French cyclist Ronan Auge has been placed in a medically induced coma following a serious crash at the Tour of Langkawi in Malaysia. The 22-year-old suffered injuries during stage six of the UCI ProSeries event and remains under medical care.

His team, Unibet Red Roses, described his condition as stable and not life-threatening. The incident adds to a recent string of high-profile cycling accidents, including the death of Fin Tarling in August and the hospitalization of Ezra Caudell last month. The Tour of Langkawi is scheduled to conclude this Sunday.
