A woman has been charged after a cyclist was killed in an alleged hit-and-run in Melbourne’s north.
The 40-year-old man was standing next to his bicycle in the bike lane on Moreland Rd, Coburg, when he was struck on August 24.
He was taken to hospital with severe internal injuries and a broken neck but could not be saved.
The driver allegedly fled the scene.
On Monday police arrested a 40-year-old woman at a home in Lower Templestowe.
She was charged with failing to stop at the scene of an accident, failing to render assistance, failing to report a collision to police and driving while suspended.
The woman will appear in Melbourne Magistrates Court on Tuesday morning.
Detectives also arrested a 61-year-old man at a home in Abbotsford.
He was interviewed and released pending further enquiries.
Police are still searching for the vehicle they believe was involved in the incident – a white 2016 Audi Q5 SUV with possible visible damage to both the front and passenger side.
“The investigation remains ongoing,” police said.
Anyone with any information has been urged to come forward.
