Charges Laid In Fatal Collision

A fatal collision over the long holiday weekend involving two trucks along Golden Grove Road resulting in four charges being laid against a Wright Street man, 35 year old Vincent Eric Reid.

The most serious charge is impaired driving causing the death of Gerald Troy Bridges who was in his 30's.

 Reid is also charged with two counts of impaired driving causing bodily harm to two other people with a third such charge expected to be laid at the end of the week.

 He has been remanded to jail pending a bail hearing Friday afternoon.

Christine Saumire's daughter was in one of the trucks and she tells CHSJ News this is a tragedy affecting many people if not the entire community.
