A Guelph man charged with the hit-and-run death of a well-known community advocate and has now been charged in a separate collision.
On Sept. 5, at around 1 p.m., Susan Bard was riding her bike along Victoria Road North when she was struck by a Ford sedan.
Guelph Police said the driver took off without checking on the victim.
Bard, meanwhile, was transported to a trauma centre in Hamilton.
She died there the next day, surrounded by her three children, on what would have been her 79th birthday.
The driver, a 35-year-old man who has not been named, was arrested later that same day at an address in the city’s east end.
Police said he was initially charged with failure to stop after an accident causing bodily harm.
