A $100,000 warrant has been issued for the 23-year-old woman who authorities say hit a motorcyclist head-on Jan. 9 and fled the scene.
The California Highway Patrol issued a press release Tuesday, asking for tips on the whereabouts of Brienne Amber Rousseau, who was identified as the suspect in the hit-and-run on Lower Colfax Road, near Laws Ranch Road.
Rousseau was driving an Infiniti G35 southbound on the wrong side of the road when she hit a northbound BMW motorcycle, CHP spokesman Mike Steele said at the time of the Jan. 9 collision.
The motorcyclist, a 51-year-old man from Roseville, was ejected and suffered major but non-life-threatening injuries, Steele said. He was flown to Sutter Roseville Medical Center.
