Accident Victim Rachel Chan Returning Home
posted (April 24, 2014)

On Tuesday we told you about Rachel Chan, the two year old who was knocked down on Holy Thursday in Trial Farm Village.  She was hit by a large pickup truck and received significant head and body injuries. But the doctors at KHMH fixed her up well, and today she left the hospital in the arms of her mother.  She was in good spirits, and didn't appear too camera shy.

As we have reported, a 14 year old was driving the pickup that knocked her down.  He has been charged and Orange Walk police say the truck's owner, Chris Hendricks will also receive a summons. 

Hendricks, who is the driver for the Deputy Prime Minister Gaspar Vega, allegedly permitted the underage driver to take some firewood to the boy's home.
