Stephen Chamberlain, an associate of the tech tycoon Mike Lynch, died in hospital three days after being hit by a car while out running in Cambridgeshire, an inquest has heard.

Chamberlain was hit on 17 August when he was about six miles into his run having set out from the city of Ely that morning. The 52-year-old was the former vice-president of finance at the British software firm Autonomy and a co-defendant with Lynch in a US fraud trial over the sale of Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard in 2011 for $11bn.
