A CATFORD man has been charged six months after a cyclist was knocked down in Chislehurst.

Alan Rock, of Perry Hill, is due to appear at Bromley Magistrates’ Court next Thursday (April 25).

The 44-year-old has been charged with driving without due care and attention and failing to stop after an accident.

Police arrested him on October 26 last year on suspicion of GBH, dangerous driving and failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

His arrest came 11 days after a cyclist, a Bromley College lecturer in his 60s, was hit by a car in Chislehurst Road near Berryfield Close.
