Judge dies whilst cycling

ACT Supreme Court judge Terry Connolly died today after suffering a heart attack while cycling around Parliament House in Canberra.

Police believe the 49-year-old was cycling with a group when he collapsed.

"He [Justice Connolly] was in a group of people who were bike-riding when he had a heart attack," a spokesman for ACT Police Minister Simon Corbell said.

"He [Justice Connolly] was resuscitated and an ambulance was called but he was subsequently declared deceased at Canberra Hospital."

I hope Chook was not setting the pace for that ride.
