Fatal accident inquiry to be held into death of pedestrian hit by tram

A fatal accident inquiry is to be held into the death of a pedestrian who was hit by a tram more than five years ago.

The Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service has now lodged a first notice to begin the court process for a fatal accident inquiry into the death. “Mr Correa’s family will continue to be kept informed of significant developments as court proceedings progress.”Following the court hearing last August, the Crown Office said there were no issues with the tram driver’s driving and the tram was in working order.

They also said a near-miss incident at the same crossing in November 2016 was reported but failed to result in any action in relation to the risk assessment.
