I hope that witnesses can identify the vehicle. Very sad news.

NBC article says vehicle was stolen and ditched blocks away from the scene.  However, CBS article makes no mention of the vehicle being stolen, but police have strong leads and hope to make the arrest soon.  Hopefully the driver will be apprehended.

God. How can you do that. Just mow someone down and run away. It makes my blood boil and my head spin. 

The neighbor, Ms. Beverly Wilcher, says it all. 

I think Ms. Wilcher's words effectively captured what many of us feel after a horrible incident like this.

I missed the part in the original NBC piece about the car being ditched after the crash. I hope that someone can provide information to police so they can identify and locate the driver.

I hope there will be more news today.

My sympathy to Jeffrey's family and friends. I didn't know him, but any crash like this is a loss to Chicago's bike community.

According to this article, they have someone in custody.  The article was posted yesterday, but I haven't seen an update.
