Help With Hit and Run on 62nd and Broadway (1AM on 6/11)

Around 1am this morning (6/11) I was hit by a car riding a Citi bike on 62nd heading west across Broadway heading home after watching the Knicks game. The car briefly stopped, then took off when I stood up. I vaguely remember it being a yellow cab, but not 100% sure as it was approaching from behind and I hit my head on the street after the collision and my glasses were run over. A couple stopped to help me, but I didn't call 911 as I was full of adrenaline and in a bit of a daze. I docked the bike a block over and took a cab home.

This morning went to urgent care where I was diagnosed with a concussion, sprained wrist, and ordered an X ray for a potential fractured hip.

Anyone have any advice on tracking down this car? Finding traffic footage/security footage or somehow finding the witness couple? (I wish I had gotten their contact info.)

Any advice welcome. Thanks

Update: went to nypd precinct and they refused to take a report because I “left the scene.” Will have to contact gale brewer and a lawyer
