The woman was injured as she walked along Moorland Road in Splott

A woman who was hit by a bike when she was walking her dog has died from her injuries almost five weeks later.

The 57-year-old was walking with her husband on Moorland Road in Splott, Cardiff, at about 17:30 GMT on 10 December when a cyclist rode into her before fleeing the scene.

South Wales Police said the cyclist was male, wearing a black face covering, a white shirt and red tie.

The victim was taken to University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff where she died on Monday.
