A man is accused of driving uninsured and in possession of meth when a horrific crash occurred between a convoy of charity motorcycle riders and a semi last summer in northern Alberta.
The charges come less than a week after survivors of the collision and the loved ones of those who died gathered outside K Division headquarters in Edmonton to put pressure on RCMP to speed up the process.
The crash on Aug. 31, 2024 happened about 300 kilometres northwest of Edmonton near High Prairie, Alta.
Laurent Isadore, 38, from the Driftpile First Nation and his 33-year-old friend Tyler Duboski from Edmonton were both killed when a semi tractor-trailer crossed the centre line on Highway 2 near Sucker Creek First Nation and hit their group of motorcycle riders.
Six others, including Duboski’s older brother, were injured and had to be taken to hospital.
