Bus driver & his sick wife ‘who barely left home' died with 2 dachshunds when car plunged 300ft off cliff at UK landmark
A BUS driver and his "frail" wife who tragically died when their car plunged 300ft off a cliff have been identified by locals. John and Lynn King were reportedly with their two Daschshunds when their car plummeted into Alum Bay, near to the Needles, on the Isle of Wight last Friday. 6 6 6 The couple's silver Ford Mondeo left the road close to the world-famous coastal landmark, killing the pair instantly. It is understood that John, who drove for local company Southern Vectis, was a full-time carer for his wife. According to locals, Lynn had rarely been seen out the house for the past two years. Speaking to the MailOnline, one neighbour said: "She wasn't well, I don't know exactly what she was suffering from but I think it was serious. "John was effectively her carer. He was helping his wife to the car and their two Dachshund dogs were with them. 'His wife looked really, really frail. I was surprised to see her out of the house. She was hunched over quite badly and was finding it very difficult to walk." Emergency services were scrambled to Alum Bay New Road, close to the coastal spot, shortly after 7.20pm on Friday. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary confirmed on Sunday that two people died in the tragedy. The force explained: "A car, which was being driven along Alum Bay New Road, left the road, came off the cliff top and came to rest in the water below." Cops also closed the neighbouring Needles Landmark Attraction while emergency crews attended the site. Responders were stood down in the early hours of Saturday morning. In a statement released on Saturday evening, a police spokesperson said: "Formal identification has yet to take place, but their next of kin have been notified. "As part of the ongoing investigation into the incident, on behalf of the coroner, officers have been carrying out enquiries at an address on Arctic Road, Cowes." 6 6
