Update on Cyclist Hit at 11th and U St, NW Tuesday Morning
Dear PoPville,
I am a friend of Shawn Streiff, the person who was involved in the bicycle accident at 11th and U St, NW Tuesday. I wanted to provide you with an update on his situation and provide a link to the donation fund we have started for him.
Shawn is currently in the ICU at Washington Hospital center and has multiple broken bones and a lot of cuts — but luckily he is alive. He has been through hours of surgery (8 yesterday and 4 more today) to hopefully repair his fractured pelvis, broken arm and significant nerve damage. He is still in a lot of pain and has a long road ahead, so many of his friends have stepped up to try to help him out.
Shawn was a member of the Delta Chi fraternity when he was at American University, where he served as chapter president and also alumni adviser after graduation. He really believed in the brotherhood of the organization so we are trying to show him what it can do when he really needs it. We’ve started a donation fund for Shawn so his friends and family can help him out. We’ve been donating inside our groups but are also hoping there may be others out there who would want to help out after such a tragic incident.
I just learned of this news. Shawn was a dear friend of mine in college, sending much love his way.
