Local authorities are still looking for the driver who fled the scene after hitting a bicyclist on Diamondback Lane last Saturday evening.
At around 6:30 p.m., Fort Worth police officers responded to the 1400 block of Esperanza Drive to assist in a crash involving a bicycle and a pickup truck. Initial investigation indicates that a black Toyota Tundra pickup truck was traveling along the southbound lane when it struck a bicyclist, who was identified only as a 14-year-old teen. Instead of checking on the victim, the pickup truck made a turn towards Sendera Ranch Boulevard and sped off.
The victim suffered from minor injuries. It was not confirmed if he was transported to a hospital for treatment.
The driver of the vehicle that struck the victim has not been located nor identified.
An investigation is underway.
