Hit-and-run vehicle strikes 61-year-old bicyclist

Florida Highway Patrol Sergeant Dylan Bryan informed Historic City News that a 61-year-old Palm Coast man was struck about 7:55 a.m. this morning while he was traveling on his bicycle eastbound along Palm Coast Parkway west of Florida Park Drive.

The vehicle that struck Terrance J. Conley, a 2005 Dodge Stratus, fled the area.

Emergency medical personnel stabilized Conley at the crash scene and prepared him to be transported, by Life Flight, to Halifax Trauma Unit with serious injuries.

Bryan reported that the hit-and-run vehicle, operated by 19-year-old Marquis T. Norwood of Palm Coast, was later located during a search at the Daytona State College parking lot. Charges are pending the outcome of the investigation.
