This is wild. Dare I say ugly?



"Shortly after 6 a.m., police say the driver of a blue late-model Kia Carnival sideswiped a motorcycle, causing the rider to lose control. The driver of the Kia then sped off, and police believe their actions were intentional.

Dash camera video shared by police shows the motorcycle rider talking to the driver of the Kia moments before the driver barrels into the left side of the motorcycle. The driver of the minivan steers into the motorcyclist, knocking the rider to the ground and pushing the rider across two lanes of traffic to the shoulder of the road. The driver of the Kia is then seen quickly switching lanes and speeding off.

The motorcycle rider who wasn’t identified suffered serious injuries and was taken to a hospital for treatment. Their condition is not known.
Police describe the driver of the Kia as a man about 30 to 40 years old with a black beard.

Police are asking anyone with information on the crash to contact Officer Nick Coplin at 971-253-9710 or the non-emergency line at 503-629-0111."
