At about 10:50 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 23, Yorktown Police responded to Birdsall Drive at the Westchester County Trailway bicycle path for a report of a bicyclist struck by a vehicle. 

Police located the victim lying in the roadway with CPR being performed by a bystander. 

The victim was taken to the hospital and later died as a result of the injuries. 

An investigation determined that the victim was struck by a vehicle that had fled the scene southbound on Birdsall Drive towards Saw Mill River Road (Route 118), according to Yorktown Police.

Police are looking for a possible gray/silver SUV or minivan that has passenger side damage and a broken rear tinted window.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Yorktown Police Department at 914-962-4141.

The family of the victim is offering up to a $5,000 cash reward for information that directly leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this fatal hit-and-run. 

"Any information, however insignificant it may seem, could help," Yorktown Police said.
