GUARDIAN

Guardian Me­dia un­der­stands that An­tho­ny was a pas­sen­ger in a sil­ver Hon­da Civic ve­hi­cle dri­ven by Kei­th Forde.

It is al­leged that Forde hit a leak­ing WASA line, caus­ing him to lost con­trol of the ve­hi­cle. An­tho­ny was thrown from the car and died on im­pact. Forde was rushed to the Scar­bor­ough Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal for treat­ment, his con­di­tion is list­ed as crit­i­cal.

Both An­tho­ny and Forde were re­turn­ing from a wake held for Tau­ry Ram­sey, the 20-year-old vic­tim of this year's first road fa­tal­i­ty. Ram­sey died on New Year's Day, near the Wil­son Road Traf­fic Lights in Scar­bor­ough. He was re­turn­ing from the So­ca on the Sand fete held at Pi­geon Point.

In­ves­ti­ga­tions are con­tin­u­ing.
