Ignore the first 2:30 it's just two blokes riding along.

BPD said:

Medaglia was arrested for possession of heroin, felon in possession of ammunition, violation of probation, and felony hit-and-run, according to BPD. He was taken into custody without incident. Medaglia’s misdemeanor probation violation stems from an August 2010 case for a violation of PC 653(k), possession of a switchblade.

Nice guy.

The bikes are in a separate cycle lane. Unless the driver was weaving drunk I can't see any other explanation for the "accident" and drive away.

That looked nasty.

Good to see he has been caught, from reading the news story, it seems likely that he was high on drugs when it happened.
