A man riding an electric unicycle through Central Park was critically hurt when he collided with a bicyclist who fled the scene, police said Wednesday.
Cops released surveillance pictures of the hit-and-run bicyclist, who appeared bruised and had blood on her face, and asked the public’s help identifying her and tracking her down.
The 40-year-old unicyclist was rolling through the iconic park along West Drive near W. 60th St. when he collided with a woman in a red tank top riding a bicycle with pink rubber handlebar grips about 4:30 p.m. Monday, cops said.
The victim was thrown off the unicycle and landed on the asphalt.
Medics rushed him to New York-Presbyterian Hospital Weill Cornell where he was listed in critical but stable condition.
The woman on the bicycle sped off.
Cops recovered surveillance footage of the woman taking the bike into a nearby subway station.
Anyone with information about the woman’s whereabouts is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
