Police have made an arrest in connection with a hit-and-run crash on the Rickenbacker Causeway Wednesday morning that injured two bicyclists.
According to investigators, Michele Traverso, 25, turned himself in to police early Thursday morning.
He was charged with leaving the scene of an accident with injuries and driving with a suspended license.
Enda Welsh and Aaron Cohen were struck by a vehicle as they rode their bicycles on the Causeway at about 6 a.m. Wednesday. Police said the driver drove away, leaving Welsh and Cohen injured in the road.
Welsh fractured his ankle in the accident, but Cohen had more serious injuries. He remains in critical condition with severe head trauma at Jackson Memorial Hospital.
Cohen's wife said he is an avid cyclist. He has two children, 3-year-old Lilly and 1-year-old Aiden.
Cohen's father, Stephan Cohen, spoke to Local 10 News about his son.
"We were a family all the time. His cousins, aunts and uncles -- everybody loved him so much. He was the kind of son that every father dreams about," Stephan Cohen said.
Traverso appeared in Miami-Dade bond court Thursday afternoon. His bond was set at $10,000.
