Warning for accused e-bike killer
A man accused of killing a pedestrian while riding an illegally modified e-bike has appeared in court. Jacob Charleston, 24, appeared in Melbourne Magistrates Court with his arm in a sling on Wednesday for a bail review hearing. He was granted bail earlier in July after being charged with offences including dangerous driving causing death. Police allege Mr Charleston was unlicensed and had methamphetamine in his system when he fatally struck 69-year-old William Lothian with a pushbike fitted with a 5000-watt motor. The impact occurred as Mr Lothian was crossing Frankston-Flinders Rd in Hastings in the evening of May 12. The magistrate adjourned the matter for a month, stressing the importance of the accused engaging with the support programs tied to his bail conditions. 'Seek the assistance that's been provided,' the magistrate said. 'If you don't it will be to your detriment.' Mr Charleston is expected to return to court in August.
