Aidan Chapman, 25, tragically lost his life in a Christmas Day crash in Soho, leaving his family heartbroken and seeking justice.
London: A tragic incident unfolded on Christmas Day when a 25-year-old man named Aidan Chapman was killed in a crash in Soho. He was hit by a car on Shaftesbury Avenue just after midnight and sadly passed away in the hospital on New Year’s Eve.
Aidan’s parents expressed their heartbreak, calling it their “worst nightmare” to lose their “beautiful son.” They described him as a loving and funny person who brought joy to everyone around him. Their loss has left a huge void in their lives.
According to reports, the crash happened when a car was driving on the wrong side of the road. A 30-year-old man has been charged with multiple offenses, including attempted murder, and is set to appear in court later this month.
Now, police are treating Aidan’s death as a homicide. They’re reviewing the charges against the suspect in light of this tragic event.
Detective Chief Inspector Wayne Jolley shared that their thoughts are with Aidan’s family and friends during this tough time. He assured that the investigation is ongoing and confirmed that this was an isolated incident, not linked to terrorism.
Authorities are urging anyone with footage or information about the crash to come forward. If you have any details, you can contact the police or reach out to Crimestoppers anonymously.
