A MAN hit by a taxi on the way home from a Blackburn pub died of natural causes and not as a result of the crash injuries, a post mortem examination has revealed.
Terence Higginson, 57, of Waterloo Close, was crossing Livesey Branch Road at 11.20pm on Friday after leaving the Lord Raglan pub.
A Vauxhall Vectra taxi, passing a car waiting to turn right into King's Road, hit Mr Higginson.
He was taken to Blackburn Royal Infirmary but died on Saturday morning.
The post mortem examination was carried out yesterday. An inquest will be held in the next few months.
