Teen’s Death in Road Collision | Manchester News

from Manchester News Today | The Daily News Now!

A tragic collision on King Street in Oldham claimed the life of 15-year-old Ethan Allen, who died two days later from traumatic brain injury. The driver, Abdul Wahid, was arrested at the scene and later testified he saw a pedestrian just in time to swerve—but admitted under questioning he was high on cannabis, a claim he later retracted. Forensic evidence suggested he was speeding and failed to brake in time. The coroner ruled the crash an accident, but blamed impaired driving and excessive speed. Ethan’s family honored his memory by donating his organs, a gesture that brought both grief and hope. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
