“Dear PoPville,
This is a long shot, but last Monday, 3/15, I was hit by a bicyclist between 3:30 and 3:45 pm while crossing K St. towards the Farragut North Metro Station at the corner of Connecticut Ave. and K St. At the time, I failed to exchange info with the cyclist, but I later found out I broke my elbow and my finger, which required minor surgery. If she sees this, I’d appreciate if she could please reach out.”
Please email me at [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP.
