A 47-year-old bicyclist was seriously injured in an early morning hit-and-run today in Waipahu, Honolulu police said.

The crash occurred on Kamehameha Highway just before 4 a.m.

Police said the man was riding a black mountain bike southbound on the highway when he was struck head-on by an black sedan traveling northbound.

The vehicle continued traveling on the highway, made a U-turn and fled the scene without rendering aid to the bicyclist, police said.
