CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif. – A Clearlake Oaks man was flown to a trauma center Friday after he was hit by a pickup while riding his bicycle.
The California Highway Patrol said Paul David Wolfe, 50, was injured in the crash, which occurred just after 7 p.m. Friday on Keys Boulevard at First Street in Clearlake Oaks.
CHP Officer Joe Wind said Wolfe was riding his bicycle south on Keys Boulevard when he was hit by what was described only as an early 2000s model Ford truck that was maroon or burgundy in color.
Wind said the pickup was traveling east on First Street at Keys Boulevard and failed to stop at the stop sign, colliding with Wolfe.
The pickup then fled the scene, traveling along First Street, Wind said.
Wolfe ultimately was transported via REACH to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital with a reported broken collar bone, according to Wind.
Wind said the collision is still under investigation.
