Winnipeg’s cycling community placing ‘Ghost Bike’ to remember man killed [Video]

Winnipeg’s cycling community came together Thursday night to remember the victim in a fatal hit-and-run last month.

Rob Jenner was riding his bike to work on June 6, when he was hit and killed by a speeding car at Wellington Crescent and Cockburn Street.

The 19-year-old driver has since been arrested and charged with dangerous driving causing death and failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

Now, to honour Jenner, the cycling community installed a memorial “Ghost Bike” at the scene of the incident.

A Ghost Bike is a bicycle that is painted completely white and left to honour those killed while riding their bikes.
