Once the sole bread winner for his family, 45-year-old Wasir Ali is now left to depend on his wife to take care of him after a life-changing accident cost him his left leg.
Ali was one of two persons who had been seriously injured last May after a vehicle driven by Donald Downer crashed into him and 14-year-old Shamar Henry as they proceeded along the Goed Fortuin Public Road.
As reported by this newspaper, the accident had occurred as Henry and two of his friends were proceeding north along the public road when PTT 1343, which was driven by Downer, struck him. He was flung into the air and fell into a yard. The vehicle then slammed into Ali, who was standing some distance away waiting to board a minibus.
