Global News
After months of trying to get answers about the fatal crash from the Saskatoon Police Service, family, friends and supporters held a rally Thursday in memory of Baeleigh Maurice.
It has been 126 days since nine-year-old Baeleigh Emily Maurice lost her life in Saskatoon, Sask.
The young girl was hit by a truck last September when she was crossing 33rd Street on her scooter at a marked crosswalk.
To date, there have been no charges laid against the driver involved.
On Thursday, family, friends and supporters rallied in front of the Saskatoon Police Service headquarters before walking to City Hall.
“Baeleigh’s finally being noticed,” said Sarah Smokeyday, friend and co-worker of mother Rochelle Dubois.
After months of trying to get answers from the Saskatoon Police Service, Smokeyday said they wanted to take action.
“There was no line of communication open with Rochelle from people in positions of power,” said Smokeyday.
A video was posted to social media earlier this month showing the exact moment the incident happened.
