Cyclist died from injuries in hit-and-run

A north Spokane bicyclist struck by a hit-and-run driver on North Division Street last month died from injuries suffered in the accident, an autopsy showed.

Dennis Widener, 66, died after a blood clot traveled to his lungs from deep within his body, the Spokane County Medical Examiner’s office said today.

Widener died on Wednesday in what family members said appeared to be heart attack.
