    A man has admitted killing a Wellington cyclist and penned an apology to his family

    A man has admitted killing a Wellington cyclist and penned an apology to his family


    Khing Tiang Wong pleaded guilty in the Hutt Valley District Court today to a charge of dangerous driving causing death.

    The 47-year-old struck Brent Norriss with his van, as he was cycling home between Wellington and Petone in February.

    Wong's lawyer today gave police a letter from his client, for Noriss' family.

    The 65-year-old's death prompted a 600-strong memorial ride to raise awareness for cycle safety.
