CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A Dover man has been arrested in the hit-and-run death of a retired police sergeant who was training for a cycling event to honor fallen law enforcement officers.

State police say 45-year-old Craig Sprowl was arrested Friday morning at a Portsmouth hotel and was charged with negligent homicide and conduct after an accident. He pleaded not guilty Friday afternoon and was ordered held without bail.

The arrest came three days after 59-year-old Donna Briggs, of Derry, died in Kingston. The retired Hudson police sergeant was training for next month’s Police Unity Tour.
