A memorial walk is being held today in Peguis First Nation marking the one-year anniversary of a fatal pedestrian collision in the community.
On Feb. 1, 2020, 52-year-old Albert Bradley Flett, known as Brad, and a group of friends were walking on West Road while a snowmobile poker derby was taking place in the community.
At around 6:00 p.m., Brad was struck by what police believe to be an ATV.
His friends called 911 and began to perform first aid, but when RCMP and emergency services arrived, Brad had already died from his injuries.
The driver of the vehicle has yet to be identified.
Brad’s sister Rose is organizing the ‘Walk for Justice/Memorial for Brad’, and says “we don’t want Brad to be forgotten and will continue to bring attention to his death until we get answers. Someone knows something. Please, if you have any information, call police.”
RCMP continue to actively investigate Brad’s death.
RCMP ask that if you have information on Brad’s death, please call Fisher Branch RCMP at 204- 372-8484, Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477, or secure tip online at www.manitobacrimestoppers.com.
