    The biker clipped two cars on Alicia Parkway "and fled the scene into the housing tract in Coronel," a small neighborhood street across from Alicia Park, McGovern said.

    Sheriffs are investigating the biker for a possible hit-and-run. They have also reconstructed the scene of the accident, something only done in the event of a serious injury, McGovern said.
