A woman has been arrested after a man died in a crash involving a car and a cyclist.

Wiltshire Police said the 64-year-old cyclist died after the collision on the A350 near Lacock at about 05:00 GMT on Tuesday.

A 38-year-old woman has since been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and suspicion of causing serious injury by drug driving.
