Cyclist Seriously Injured - Hit-and-run driver leaves cyclist with broken femur in Hanau crash

A 65-year-old female cyclist was seriously injured in Hanau on Saturday evening after being struck by a car. The driver fled the scene without stopping, leaving the victim with a fractured femur. Police are now searching for witnesses to help identify the person responsible.

The incident took place as the cyclist rode along a designated bike lane. A car approaching from behind passed too closely, causing a collision. The impact left the woman with a broken thighbone and other injuries.

The driver did not stop to offer assistance or report the crash. Instead, they drove away immediately. Authorities believe the collision happened because the motorist failed to keep a safe distance from the cyclist.

Investigators are urging anyone who saw the accident or has information about the vehicle to come forward. The cyclist remains in hospital receiving treatment for her injuries.

The search for the driver continues as police review available evidence. Witnesses with details about the car or the crash are asked to contact local authorities. The cyclist’s condition is being monitored while the investigation proceeds.
