Cyclist critically injuried after being struck while riding in Boston

Boston police released a photo of a vehicle they said was involved in an incident early Sunday morning in Boston’s Back Bay. A cyclist suffered from life-threatening injuries after being struck by a car. Boston EMS say the man was riding on Commonwealth Avenue and Clarendon Street when he was hit around 3:20 Sunday morning. He was riding with a second bicyclist, who was not hit. A four-door, silver sedan dragged the victim, and may have also run him over. Investigators released photos of the silver sedan who they said struck the victim and fled the area. Police said the vehicle should have damage on the roof near the windshield area on the driver's side. "We need everyone's help to step up. Obviously this four-door silver vehicle is going to have some grill damage in the front from the impact," said Boston police commissioner William Evans. The injured cyclist was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital and was in critical condition. Anyone with information is urged to contact Boston Police at 617-343-4470.
