Body found in woodland in search for cyclist who killed pensioner in hit-and-run

A body has been found in a woodland in the search for a cyclist who crashed into a pensioner and left her to die on the pavement. Stewart McGinn, 30, struck Jane Stone, 79, in a high speed bicycle hit-and-run in Monmouth, South Wales on June 7, 2021.

The church minister and retired teacher, who had been out on a evening walk, suffered serious head injuries and tragically died four days later in hospital. McGinn was sentenced to 12 months in prison in July last year, but released half way the term.

However, he was later reported missing after being last seen near his home address in Monmouth on Tuesday, the Mirror reports. A police search was launched, with authorities confirming earlier today that a body had been found.
