Police Search For Suspect In Cement Chunk Attacks On Bicyclists

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - Minneapolis police are asking for the public's help to find a driver who is throwing chunks of cement at bicyclists.

Twenty-year-old Mackenzie Jensen was seriously hurt when he was struck last week.

Since June 20, police say five people have been attacked, four on bicycles and one in a car. All four bikers were injured, three of them seriously.

Police are now saying they believe all five attacks may be related. In each case the attacker is described as a white or Hispanic man in his 20s driving an older model white Ford, possibly a Bronco or a pickup with a topper.

One of the rear windows is missing and covered with cardboard or wood.

Police say the suspect could be a construction worker, because one victim saw a yellow vest.
