A male bicyclist was found dead in the street Tuesday night, the apparent victim of a hit and run, according to Dublin Police.

At 11:30 p.m., Dublin Police Services received a call of a person down in the roadway in the area of Dougherty Road at Fall Creek near , Lieutenant Herb Walters said.


When officers arrived they found a 55- to 60-year-old man in the street.

“Fire and paramedics responded and determined that the man was dead,” Walters  said. “Later it was determined that the man had been victim of a hit and run accident.”

Walters said they found vehicle parts at the scene and that investigators believe the car that hit the man is a 2010-2011 black Mercedes Benz with possible front end damage.

The victim has not yet been identified.

How sad, My son saw that bike rider pushing his bike near 7-11 store last night about 23:25. It looked like he had a flat tire.

This gives me chills! Last night my parents left the Giants game early & later told me when they had gotten home they noticed a man walking his bike. My mom felt bad becuase it was late and it looked like he had a flat tire. They later went to pick me up from bart and said the street was blocked because there was a really bad accident. When i was leaving there house to mine a San Ramon cop stopped me and questioned me. it didnt acure to me that it may have been the guy my parents saw! God I hope they find that guy who hit him!
