A tragic incident in regional Victoria has left a community mourning the loss of an elderly couple, Carmel and Jim Madden. The couple, known for their active involvement in various volunteer organizations, was killed when a truck driven by a 70-year-old man crashed into their home near Warnambool. The driver has not yet been questioned by the police.
The passing of Carmel and Jim has deeply affected those who knew them, including their longtime friend Sue Lane. Lane expressed her grief, saying, "It's been really hard, it's like losing parents." The couple's involvement in the community will be greatly missed, as they were known for their dedication to volunteering at local footy games, Lifeline, and the Lions Club.
The tragedy has left their family devastated, with three children now mourning the loss of their beloved parents. In a statement, the family described Carmel and Jim as devoted parents who gave them numerous opportunities and were immensely proud of their children. Their love for racing will live on through a racehorse born on their farm, just moments after their passing. The family hopes that the foal will become a cup winner in honor of Carmel and Jim.
The 70-year-old truck driver, who remains at Warnambool Base Hospital with minor injuries, will be questioned by the police as they continue to investigate the cause of the crash. It is believed that the driver, a man from Portland, has no prior history of driving offenses. The police are exploring the possibility of a medical episode being the cause of the accident and are waiting for the results of a blood test, which could take up to a week.
