Police say he was unconscious and they don't know how long he may have been there.
The initial investigation shows he was hit from behind by a vehicle that will have front end, passenger-side damage.
Troopers are going to the various businesses along that road collecting their surveillance video, trying to get a timeline of Mcfadden's bicycle ride and the cars that traveled in the area.
The victim was flown by helicopter to a Pittsburgh hospital.
State police say his condition is not good and that the victim probably never saw this coming.
Investigators say whoever hit him knew they hit a person and did not stop.
