A six-year-old girl was on a tag-along bike that was attached to her dad's bicycle. The 37-year-old father was going to cross Monroe Street at Chapman Street with hopes of pedaling onto Arbor Drive. As he and his daughter were heading across the street a car turned left from Arbor Drive on to Monroe Street. The father yelled out, but it was too late, the '98 Ford Taurus struck the tag-along sending his daughter tumbling into the street. She struck the pavement with enough force to knock off her bicycle helmet. At first the little girl could not breathe. Her dad leaped to her aid and could hear from the driver state, "Oh ----!" as he drove off. Nearby witnesses signaled for the motorist to stop, but he did not. Another motorist followed the suspect and got his license plate. Officers took this information and went to the man's residence where he was arrested. Madison Fire Rescue responded and provided medical assistance to the girl. She did not require a trip to the hospital.
