Berkeley police are searching for a driver who struck a bicyclist on Shattuck Avenue at Woolsey Street on Monday night and left the scene.
The 33-year-old Kensington woman was riding her bicycle north on Shattuck Avenue when police said a driver, also going north, struck her from behind. She had stopped for oncoming southbound traffic to make a left turn when the strike happened, Berkeley police said.

Onlookers at the scene shared a photo of a woman sitting on the ground near the Starry Plough pub, being aided by first responders.
Police said the person who struck the bicyclist was driving a white sedan. Anyone with information should contact Berkeley police.
