Police arrested an Oakland man Friday in connection with a hit-and-run crash in Berkeley in which a bicyclist’s mounted camera filmed the car that knocked him to the asphalt.

Michael Patrick Medaglia, 42, who is on probation for possession of a switchblade, allegedly ran down two bicyclists Wednesday on Tunnel Road. One of the cyclists, “Bruno,” filmed the crash and uploaded a video showing a black sedan drifting into the bike lane, clipping the cyclists and driving off.

Neither rider was seriously hurt.

Medaglia, the registered owner of the car filmed by the bike cam, called Oakland police after the crash to report that his car had been stolen, investigators said. Oakland police found it Friday morning, and after examining the car, Berkeley officers tracked down Medaglia at his residence at the Jack London Inn on Embarcadero West, said Berkeley police Capt. Andrew Greenwood. They arrested him without incident, police said.

Medaglia was booked on suspicion of felony hit and run, possession of heroin, being a felon in possession of ammunition and a probation violation. The probation stems from an August 2010 case in which Medaglia was found to possess a switchblade, Greenwood said.

Cyclist “Bruno” uploaded the video of the Wednesday afternoon crash after he and and a buddy were hit by black sedan while climbing Tunnel Road in Berkeley. The black sedan appears to drift right and clip the two cyclists.

Both fall to the ground and get up without serious injury. The driver flees the scene.

Berkeley police are investigating the crash, said Capt. Andrew Greenwood, a Berkeley police spokesman. Both riders suffered abrasions and their bikes were seriously damaged, Greenwood said.

“This investigation included review of the video, as well as action on a number of investigative leads,” Greenwood said. “Due to the ongoing, active nature of the investigation, we are not at this time able to share or confirm specific information regarding our efforts.”

But “Bruno” said on his YouTube page that police were able to identify the license plate of the car and have already made contact with the driver.

“The police have located the car and the owner,” he wrote. “Now I’m waiting for the return of the police on the case.”
