A bicyclist has died after a hit-and-run in Okolona on Tuesday night.
Christopher W. Ward, 43, of Louisville, died November 3 at UofL Hospital from his injuries.
Ward was injured around 8:15 p.m. November 1 in the 8000 block of Preston Highway by a vehicle heading northbound which left the scene.
Louisville Metro police say the driver of that vehicle was 19 year-old Isaiah Terry. Terry is charged with assault, driving under the influence, along with leaving the scene of an accident and failing to render aid.
LMPD said Terry parked in a nearby street after the accident and called his father. The two men returned to the crash scene just before 10 p.m.
Terry entered a not guilty plea at his arraignment on November 2. His bond was set at $25,000 cash. He is next scheduled to appear in court for a preliminary hearing on November 10.
