Lawyer seeks info on hit-and-run at Interstate near Steel Bridge

Map of incident created by laywer Charley Gee.

Portland-based lawyer and bicycle law specialist Charley Gee needs our help.

Gee represents a man who was struck by someone driving a car as he biked in the bike lane on North Interstate Avenue on August 15th. The person driving the car didn’t render aid or wait around for help to arrive at the scene. The victim needs information about the suspect to help his case.

Here’s more about the incident from Gee:

“After being struck and knocked to the ground, the car driver stopped, rolled down his window and laughed at the injured man before leaving the scene.

The car is described as a gold sedan. The driver was a male. The bicyclist is a middle-aged African American male. He suffered severe injuries due to the collision.”

Unfortunately the nearby MAX platform was unable to produce video footage of the collision.

If you have any information about what happened or were there to witness it, please get in touch with Gee as soon as possible via email – cgee@injuryoregon.com or (503) 278-5389.
