OCEAN CITY – Washington State Patrol (WSP) detectives are seeking the public’s assistance in locating a vehicle and driver involved in an injury hit and run collision on State Route 109 near Ocean City on Monday night.
Michael P. Faigenblum, 31, of Seattle, was riding a bicycle on the shoulder of State Route 109 near Burrows Road the evening of June 21, 2021, when he was struck from behind by an unknown passenger car.
