KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) -- Kenosha County sheriff's deputies are searching for the pickup truck driver who hit two bicyclists, killing one of them.

Two men from Chicago were biking in Wilmot Saturday night when they were hit by the pickup, whose driver then fled the scene.

Authorities say 44-year-old Gordon Kleifield was taken to a local hospital, then transported by helicopter to Froedtert (FRAY'-dert) Hospital in Milwaukee, where he died.

Forty-six-year-old Daniel Dugan suffered minor injuries and was treated at a local hospital.

Investigators are searching for the driver of a dark gray pickup without a right-side mirror.
