Crash’s PI in tourist death continues
Roland ‘Crash’ Allen appeared in court this morning, Monday February 13, 2012 where the hearing resumed. This news agency was informed that over 10 witnesses have testified so far. The PI began late last year.
Allen was allegedly behind the wheel of the tour bus that overturned on Windy Hill on February 23, 2010. It resulted in the death of 24 year-old Aaron Rumphrey of New York. Six other passengers were treated at Peebles Hospital and released.
A Police press release issued at the time of the incident had stated a total of 20 cruise ship passengers from the Caribbean Princess were on the tour bus descending the Windy Hill Road when the driver struck an embankment and the vehicle overturned.
Of the 20, 13 passengers were assessed at the scene and taken directly back to the cruise ship.
At the time, Allen was granted bail in the sum of $60,000 - $25,000 cash and $35,000 signed surety. His driver’s license was also suspended, but he landed back in prison after being charged for sex related offences. He is currently serving time for those offenses.
