Newbury police had previously described Arnett as an "overdue cyclist" who left without his cellphone, adding that it was unclear what route he had planned to ride.

Arnett was a Beth Israel Lahey Health cardiologist specializing in echocardiography, nuclear and preventive heart care and cardiothoracic imaging, according to Doximity, a platform that lists verified health care professionals.
