A tragic event occurred in a Sydney court today as a man, Joshua Fisher, faced charges for his involvement in a fatal car accident. The incident, which took place on July 12th, 2023, resulted in the death of a 61-year-old woman and left two others with serious injuries. It is alleged by the police that Fisher was driving recklessly and negligently prior to the crash on Eastwood's First Avenue, in the north-west of Sydney.
The 32-year-old is facing multiple charges, including one count of dangerous driving that led to the death of another person and two counts of dangerous driving causing grievous bodily harm. In addition, he has also been charged with traffic offences for negligent driving that resulted in death and grievous bodily harm. During his brief appearance in Burwood Local Court today, Fisher remained silent as his case was adjourned for another hearing next month. He is currently out on bail and has not entered a plea for any of the charges.
According to reports, the accident involved at least six vehicles, including a Mitsubishi SUV driven by Fisher, a Holden Commodore, Kia SUV, Toyota sedan, Audi hatchback, and a van. The female passenger of the Holden, 61-year-old Swee Be-An Chew, was tragically pronounced dead at the scene despite efforts from paramedics. The driver and another passenger of the Holden, Lynette Kwong and Ann Wong, both in their 60s, were rushed to the hospital in critical condition. Fisher, on the other hand, suffered a head injury and was also taken to the hospital, where he remains in a stable condition.
It's been almost a year since the accident occurred, and it wasn't until now that Fisher was formally charged by the police. The court will reconvene on August 28th to further address the matter.
