The motorcycle driver who died from his injuries following a two-vehicle collision in Barrhaven last Wednesday night is being remembered by his family as the “proud father” of two children and a “talented” car wrapper.
Investigators identified the driver as 32-year-old Kevin Lepine-Charter on Monday, at the request of his family, according to a news release from the Ottawa police.
The release was accompanied by a brief statement attributed to Caitlin Charter, the mother of Lepine-Charter’s children.
“He was and forever will be the light in our lives,” Charter said.
The collision that claimed Lepine-Charter’s life occurred on Greenbank Road, near Highbury Park Drive, at around 9:40 p.m. on July 10, according to police.
Lepine-Charter was taken to hospital with “serious and critical injuries,” where he later died, police said the next morning.
No charges have been laid in the incident and the police investigation into the crash continues, Const. Chuck Benoit said on Monday.
To date, police have not released any information about the passenger or passengers in the other vehicle involved in the collision.
The police department said last week that a third vehicle witnessed the collision.
Investigators urged anyone who witnessed the incident or who has relevant information to call 613-236-1222, ext. 2481.
