The family of a woman seriously injured in an Ocean Beach hit-and-run crash is pleading for the public’s help finding the driver responsible.
The collision happened as Katie Connor, 23, rode her red bicycle on West Point Loma Boulevard toward Sunset Cliffs Boulevard at about 1:20 a.m. Sunday.
San Diego Police say a white pickup truck with a camper shell struck her and immediately took off.
Connor was rushed to the UCSD Hillcrest hospital for a major head injury.
Her uncle Michael McGinty said her part of her skull had to be removed because her brain is swollen. On Friday, Connor, a Pizza Port employee, underwent surgery.
Connor’s family released a picture of her Friday, hoping someone will recognize the bike, the victim or the vehicle involved and call police.
