DRIVER FLEES THE SCENE AFTER HITTING AND KILLING BICYCLE RIDER

A man riding a bicycle on Loop 494 in Porter was killed early this morning after being struck by a vehicle. Just after 3 am as he rode south on Loop 494 just north of FM 1314 he was struck by an unknown vehicle. Possibly maroon in color. The vehicle that struck him continued on with the bicycle attached to it. Troopers did locate one part of the bike close to one-half mile away on Loop 494. The male had no identification on him. MCHD attempted life-saving measures but he was pronounced deceased at 3;35am. Montgomery County Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace Jason Dunn responded to the scene and ordered Eickenhorst Funeral Directors to transport the victim to the Montgomery County Forensic Center for autopsy. The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office Vehicular Crimes Unit is assisting DPS in the investigation. The suspect was located on foot after an anonymous caller gave his location. Law enforcement is still searching for the vehicle as he is not cooperating.
