PORT RICHEY - Troopers were looking Wednesday for a grayish car with damage to the driver's side following a hit-and-run crash Wednesday afternoon that left a Citrus County man in critical condition.

Nicholas Burns, Jr., 22, of Beverly Hills, was riding his 2007 motorcycle north on U.S. 19 at 2:49 p.m. when a driver heading west on Bougainvillea Drive ignored a stop sign and drove into Burns' path,
Sgt. Steve Gaskins of the Florida Highway Patrol reported.

Instead of stopping, the driver, described by a witness as a white woman, headed south on U.S. 19.
Burns, who was not wearing a helmet, was taken to Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg, Gaskins said. No specifics on Burns' injuries were available later Wednesday.
