First off the cyclist ran a red light and is at fault. Virtually all lights have an all round red for about a second or two. The cyclist therefore had a red well before he entered the intersection. It may not have been a scam (just a stupid cyclist) but the cyclist knew he was wrong and that is why he did not call the cops. Your Dad should have called the cops anyway to prevent false charges of hit & run. It may still be best to file a police report to cover his butt and explain any damages (marks) on the rental car.
