The force of the impact sent Vidal and his bicycle into a ditch. He was taken to Duke Hospital where he later died.
Police charged Maceo Kemp Jr., 27, with felony hit-and-run and driving with a revoked license after they say he hit Vidal. Kemp turned himself into police Tuesday afternoon.
Vidal was a senior software engineer at Red Hat. His funeral arrangements have not been finalized.
