ON 042010 AT APPROXIMATELY 1507 HOURS, I WAS ADVISED OF A TRAFFIC CRASH IN THE AREA OF STATE ROAD 55 (US HIGHWAY 19) AND YULEE DRIVE IN HOMOSASSA. I MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE BANK OF AMERICA. THE VICTIM ADVISED ME THAT HE WAS ATTEMPTING TO CROSS THE ENTRANCE TO THE BANK WHEN HE AND HIS BICYCLE WERE STRUCK BY THE DEFENDANT. THE VICTIM ADVISED THAT AFTER THE IMPACT, HE FELL TO THE GROUND AND INJURED HIS KNEE. EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS) WAS ON SCENE, BUT THE VICTIM REFUSED TRANSPORT. THERE WERE MINOR SCRAPES ON THE VICTIM'S BICYCLE. THE VICTIM ADVISED ME THAT AFTER HE WAS STRUCK, THE DEFENDANT AND HE HAD WORDS AND THE DEFENDANT LEFT THE SCENE TRAVELING SOUTH ON US HIGHWAY19. I THEN LEFT THE SCENE, WHERE THE VICTIM WAS AND TRAVELED TO THE HOMOSASSA POST OFFICE WHERE THE DEFENDANT WAS BEING DETAINED BY CITRUS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE (CCSO) DEPUTIES. I MADE CONTACT WITH TWO INDEPENDENT WITNESSES THAT OBSERVED THE COLLISION BETWEEN THE DEFENDANT'S VAN AND THE VICTIM'S BICYCLE. THEY ADVISED ME THAT AFTER THE IMPACT, THE DEFENDANT AND VICTIM BEGAN YELLING AT EACH OTHER. THE DEFENDANT DROVE AROUND THE VICTIM AND BEGAN TO TRAVEL SOUTH ON US HIGHWAY19 TO THE POST OFFICE. I THEN SPOKE WITH THE DEFENDANT ABOUT THE TRAFFIC CRASH. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT HE DID NOT THINK THAT HE HAD STRUCK THE BICYCLIST AND THAT THE BICYCLIST HAD PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF HIM. DUE TO THE STATEMENTS OF THE WITNESSES, THE VICTIM AND THE MINOR DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES, THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR LEAVING THE SCENE OF A TRAFFIC CRASH INVOLVING INJURIES.
