A 29-year-old skateboarder died in Abbotsford, British Columbia Canada on Saturday night October 2, 2010 after he collided with a Ford Expedition. The woman driving the car is facing charges of “impaired driving,” according to a story in The Vancouver Sun.
Cpl. Casey Vinet of the Abbotsford Police department. . . .said the driver, who had four passengers in the vehicle with her, pulled over immediately. He said evidence of alcohol was found in the vehicle. . . Vinet said witnesses indicated the longboarder, who was wearing a helmet, may not have stopped at the stop sign. . . Passersby attempted to administer first aid, but the man died at the scene.
Our thoughts are with the man’s family and friends.
