Portland police were looking for help to find a driver that hit and seriously hurt a bicyclist in North Portland last week.
It happened on April 3 just before 6 p.m. Officers said 28-year-old Jessica Osborne was riding her bike westbound on North Rosa Parks Way and Albina when she was hit.
The car was a 1990s silver or gray Buick or Oldsmobile driven by a younger-looking black man, police said.
Osborne told police the car turned into the parking lot of a convenience store and then northbound on Albina.
Police said the car likely has a broken windshield and the passenger window was covered with plastic. Another person with a description similar to the driver was also a passenger in the car.
Osborne was hospitalized for nearly a week, and was released Thursday.
Anyone with information was asked to call Officer Chris Johnson at (503) 823-2213. Crime Stoppers offered a reward of up to $1,000 in the case.
