Officers Find Bicycle Abandoned
POSTED: 11:24 am CDT September 12, 2005 UPDATED: 12:32 pm CDT September 12, 2005 DES MOINES, Iowa -- The Polk County Sheriff's Office is searching for the driver involved in a fatal hit-and-run over the weekend involving a bicyclist. Donald Brian Shaver, 45, of Ankeny, was hit while riding his bike at about 4:30 a.m. Sunday east of Ankeny. The Polk County Sheriff's Office said it believes Shaver's blue Fuji bike was dragged by the car after he was hit. Officers later found the bicycle Shaver was riding abandoned northeast of Ankeny. The driver left the scene, and another driver found Shaver and called 911, according to police. Shaver sustained serious injuries in the accident and was taken to Mercy hospital where he later died. Deputies spent Sunday looking for any sign of the bike. Deputies were also trying to determine what direction the driver traveled in after the accident. Shaver was the owner of Shaver Relocation Services, a popular business in Ankeny. Authorities ask those with information about the crash to call (515) 286-3816. Source:
