"The pedal cyclist was knocked to the ground and the driver of the white car spoke to her briefly and then left the scene."

The cyclist attended UHL that afternoon and was treated for her injuries.

"This area would have been busy at the time with many potential witnesses," Sgt O'Halloran continued.

Anyone who may have seen the incident or you are a motorist with dash cam footage of it, gardaí at Henry Street would like to hear from you on 061 212400.
