Police are seeking witnesses and dashcam footage following a collision on the A171, near New Bridge, in Whitby.
It happened at about 9.05pm on Saturday 10 May 2025, and involved a male cyclist being hit by a white VW 4X4 vehicle.
They were both heading west, on to the bridge, at the time of the collision. The cyclist was taken to hospital, after losing consciousness and suffering a hairline fracture to his shoulder. He is now recovering at home.
The car involved failed to stop at the scene of the collision, and we are looking to identify it, and its driver. Police are appealing for any witnesses to the collision, anyone who may have seen the 4x4 prior to the collision, or anyone with relevant dashcam footage, to contact officers.
