The awful moment cowardly cyclist hits woman in fatal crash before fleeing

This is the cowardly moment a cyclist rode off after knocking into an elderly woman who hit her head on the pavement and died days later. The horrific collision between Stewart McGinn and Elizabeth Jayne Stone was caught on CCTV which has been released by the Crown Prosecution Service with permission from Ms Stone's family.

Ms Stone, known to her friends as Jayne, suffered a fractured skull as a result of the crash in Monmouth on June 7 last year. The 79-year-old died in hospital on June 11 as a result of her injuries.

McGinn, 29, only handed himself into police on June 17 after seeing a police appeal on Facebook and identified himself as the cyclist. He lied to police saying he had stopped to help Ms Stone to her feet and check she was alright, but the footage clearly shows him failing to break his stride and riding off immediately.
