A 44-year-old cardiologist from Massachusetts was discovered dead after he went missing during a weekend bicycle ride. Dr Daniel Arnett, affiliated with Beth Israel Lahey Health, was found Sunday afternoon, November 8, near a cow pasture at Tendercrop Farm in Newbury, Massachusetts, according to the New York Post. He had last been observed on his bicycle at about 10 a.m. Saturday, November 7, on Scotland Road close to Colby Farm in Newbury. The Essex County District Attorney's Office said his body was located just after 2 p.m., one day after he was reported missing. Police noted that Arnett had left his mobile phone behind when he set out and that investigators did not initially know the route he planned to take. Local police and emergency crews took part in the search after his disappearance. Authorities said foul play is not suspected, though they have not released the cause or details surrounding his death. At Beth Israel Lahey Health, Arnett worked as a cardiologist focusing on echocardiography, cardiac CT, nuclear cardiology and preventive cardiology. He joined the organization in 2021 after finishing his medical education and specialty training.
