Father of 3 – Victim of a HIT AND RUN
On Tuesday 7th June 2011 at approximately 7:30pm, A friend of mine was cycling home from a day at work, heading southbound on Princes Highway near Preston Ave in Engadine. He was struck from behind by a car at approximately 60kmh/hour then rammed into the back of a parked car suffering very serious injuries.
His name is Greg Holden.
Greg is a loving father of 3 kids, a husband and a friend of many who consider Greg the most caring and down-to-earth, genuine person on this planet.
Greg was admitted to St George hospital with severe trauma requiring immediate surgery to his face which has many lacerations. Greg also has severe injuries to his right arm & hand which may require surgery depending on the outcome of scans to Greg’s most serious injury, his broken neck.
Greg is self-employed (not a desk job either) and out of work for an unknown period of time due to his injuries.
As the driver of the car that hit Greg fled the scene leaving him to die, Greg is unable to claim for insurance or compensation due to no person coming forward and being ‘at fault’.
If anybody was a witness to the incident, or has seen a car with a broken windscreen or any damage that would indicate they have hit somebody; Or even if you have any (albeit minor) information about the incident – Please come forward.
Constable Dave Maione from Sutherland Local Area Command will be able to take your call on (02) 9542 0899.
Alternatively you can contact myself if you wish to remain anonymous or do not wish to speak to police, I can be contacted via email at: jake@rzn.id.au
If you can also help spread this message, by forwarding this on to anybody who lives in the area and may have seen something, It would be greatly appreciated.
