GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.- The Kent County Sheriff needs your help finding the people who hit a motorcyclist on Friday night.
It happened around 5:30 pm on East Beltline Avenue SE just north of Cascade Road SE. The Sheriff says the motorcyclist was going south when a red Chevy Lumina switched lanes and hit the side of the bike. That sideswipe caused the biker to be thrown from her bike.

Witnesses describe the driver as a white male around 40 years old and about 6 feet tall. He is thin and has a short haircut along with a goatee. He was last seen wearing what witnesses described as dirty work clothes, a white t-shirt and jeans. The passenger is described as a white female also around 40 years old. According to descriptions, she is thin and has shoulder-length red hair.
The biker has some road rash and her right foot is injured from the accident.
