Colorado Springs Cyclist Hit-and-Run

A friend of mine just posted to FB about an hour ago that she and her family witnessed a pickup truck hit a cyclist riding with 2 others and left the scene. My friend reports that one cyclist took chase and was able to get the license plate number while she stopped to render what aid she could until the ambulance arrived. The cyclist that was hit got up and was walking until those who stopped to help finally convinced him to sit down, so as far as she knows his injuries are not life threatening.
So the collision happened maybe 3 hours ago. Anyone seen it on the news yet?
