Hit and Run

On the way home, I passed by a terrible scene: A man had been just struck off his bicycle while riding up Pine street, near 8th Ave, by an SUV. I was more than a block away when it happened and didn't see it, and unfortunately none of the people I spoke to were able to say if someone had gotten the license plate. Even as I fished out my camera a cop arrived on the scene and took control of the situation. I never did learn what happened; I was unable to provide any details and went on my way.

I hope they nail whoever did this. I've been thinking about riding again in downtown, and things like this happen to talk me out of it.
