What Scott Cowell experienced in front of his home is still difficult to talk about.
What Scott Cowell experienced in front of his home is still difficult to talk about.
He was in his garage on Lisgar Avenue when tragedy struck.
“I heard it, then I kept hearing music and walked out here,” Cowell tells CTV News.
According to Ontario Provincial Police, 26-year old Wyatt Chambers of Tillsonburg was thrown from a pickup truck, then run over by the vehicle while rounding a bend in the road just before 8 p.m. on Tuesday.
A 24-year old Langton man driving the pick-up has been charged with dangerous operation causing death and impaired operation causing death.
“I saw him standing over top of the other guy saying his name, then rolled him over and ran to his truck and left,” Cowell recalls.
Cowell wants friends and family to know that he and his next-door neighbour called 9-1-1 and did everything they could after the driver left the scene.
