Police are asking for witnesses to come forward after a cyclist died following a crash in New Plymouth last week.

Emergency services were called to the scene at the intersection of Powderham Street and Mt Edgecumbe Street about 12.35pm on Saturday 12 April.

The cyclist was transported to hospital, where he sadly died on Tuesday.

Police are now working to establish the full circumstances of the crash and are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage.

If you were in the area at the time, and saw a man riding a bicycle carrying fishing gear, or may have footage of the incident, please come forward and speak to us.

You can do so by calling 105 and quoting reference number 250415/6545.
