PHOENIX (AP) — Authorities say a cyclist has died after he was struck last month by an Arizona driver who plowed his pickup truck into a group of people participating in a bike race.
An Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman said Monday that 58-year-old Jeremy Barrett died of his injuries Saturday. The suspected driver pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and other charges after injuring seven bicyclists in June.
Authorities say the driver sped into a crowd gathered for an annual race in the mountain city of Show Low.
The Navajo County attorney's office said more charges are expected.
