Timaru crash probe continues

Almost three months after the horrific crash which cost five Timaru teenagers their lives, Police are yet to lay any charges. Aoraki area commander, Inspector Dave Gaskin, said police were still waiting on information to be released before they could decide whether to lay charges. Once police received the reports they would be sent to Canterbury Police District commander, Superintendent John Price, he said. The crash on August 7, was the worst in the South Island in almost two decades. Javarney Wayne Drummond, 15, Niko William Hill, 15, Andrew George Goodger, 15, Jack Graeme Wallace, 16, and Joseff Alan James McCarthy, 16, all died. Driver, Tyreese Fleming, 19, on a restricted licence, was the sole survivor.
