Police have appealed for witnesses after the rider of an e-bike died after being found lying in a road.

Officers were called to a report of a man, who had been riding an e-bike, in the road on Rowley Lane in Borehamwood at about 16:25 GMT on Tuesday.

Hertfordshire Police said: "He showed no sign of any injuries and went home, however, he was immediately taken to hospital and found to have broken and fractured bones." The force said the cyclist died in hospital on Friday.

Det Sgt Colin Knowles, from Hertsmere CID, said: "We would like to hear from anyone driving in Rowley Lane between 16:15 and 16:45 who may have seen the cyclist, so we establish exactly how he received his injuries."

He also appealed for anyone with dashcam footage from the area at that time to get in touch.
