Halifax Regional Police are looking for the driver of a dark green BMW SUV after a cyclist was hit in Halifax Tuesday morning.

Police say the bicycle and vehicle were both heading east on Quinpool Road at around 6:40 a.m. when the cyclist was struck from behind near Connaught Avenue.

The driver stopped and spoke with the cyclist, but then left without helping out or providing her information, say police.

The cyclist was taken to hospital by EHS with non-life threatening injuries.

The woman driving the vehicle is described as white, in her mid-to-late 30s. Her shoulder length blond hair was in a ponytail.

The 5- to 10-year old SUV had a Nova Scotia licence plate that may have started with FVP. The dark green BMW was last seen heading south on Connaught.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 902-490-5016 or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
