‘Do the right thing’: Terrace hit-and-run victim’s family pleads with driver

The family of a Terrace man killed in a hit and run last month is pleading with the driver responsible to “do the right thing.”

Thirty-year-old Cameron Kerr was walking along the shoulder of Highway 16 early in the morning of Sunday, Nov. 18 when he was hit by a vehicle about four kilometres west of the community.

“A month has passed since Cameron’s death and our family continues to grieve his loss,” said Kerr’s brother Garrett. “We are asking the driver responsible to please come forward and admit what you have done.

“Anyone who has information about my brother’s death, please contact the police. Cameron was a kind, caring human being who had a passion for hunting, the outdoors and sports and he was taken from us far too soon.”

In a media release, RCMP Sgt. Shawn McLaughlin said police believe people who know the driver have key information about the case, and appealed for them to come forward.

“The scope of this case extends well beyond the local area and the people with information may be from the Lower Mainland, where investigators are ready to speak with you,” he said.
