Chicago police are searching for a SUV wanted in a hit-and-run that killed a cyclist Sunday in Garfield Park on the West Side.

The cyclist, a 56-year-old man, was biking about 3 a.m. when he was hit by a black 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer traveling west in the 4500 block of West Lake Street, Chicago police said.

The Chevrolet’s driver took off from the scene, police said. The 56-year-old was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital where he died from his injuries. The Cook County medical examiner’s office has not identified the man.

Police believe the Chevrolet may have bumper, headlight and hood damage on the front passenger side as a result of the crash.

Anyone with information about the hit-and-run is asked to call the Major Accident Investigation Unit at 312-745-4521.
