00:00A 33-year-old man from Werribee in Victoria has been charged with dangerous driving causing death
00:05and culpable driving after a man was killed at Comic-Con in Victoria.
00:10The driver was unlicensed and only held a learner's permit when he allegedly killed a pedestrian
00:16by ploughing his car into a group outside the Supernova Convention on Saturday, April 18, 2026.
00:24To get across the lane, up onto the footpath and then travel 120 metres along the footpath
00:29in between a two metre high fence, trees and power poles is extremely rare.
00:34A 20-year-old man died and another of the same age was seriously injured
00:39when the Toyota sedan mounted the kerb outside the Melbourne showgrounds in Ascot Vale before 5pm.
00:46A third man narrowly managed to avoid the oncoming car and escaped without injury.
00:51A minute's silence was held at the convention on Sunday as organisers offered their condolences.
00:58For us, you know, all we can do is join and send prayers and hope that they recover
01:04and of course think of the family who lost their loved one and, you know, offer any support we can.
