Deputies Searching for Driver who Critically Injured Cyclist, Fled Scene
Media release
Posted July 25, 2026
On Friday, July 24, 2026, just after 4 p.m., Washington County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a hit-and-run crash on NW West Union Road and NW Neakahnie Avenue. A 74-year-old Beaverton man was riding his bicycle going east on NW West Union Road when an SUV driving west turned left in front of him and hit the cyclist.
A nurse was on scene and provided care for the cyclist who was taken to the hospital with critical injuries. The driver in the SUV did not stop and fled south on NW Neakahnie Avenue.
The inter-agency Crash Analysis Reconstruction Team (CART) responded to investigate. During the collision, the side mirror of the SUV broke off and was found at the scene. Deputies used that mirror to identify the suspect vehicle as a gray 2011 to 2015 Ford Edge.
If you can help identify the driver, vehicle, or witnessed it before or after the crash and have not yet spoken to deputies, please call non-emergency dispatch at 503-629-0111 and reference case 50-26-10430.
