Constable Concludes Supko Death Investigation
Constable Peter McKay finished his probe into Andrew Supko's death after his body and a car were recovered from the New river at McCreery last Friday. The blaze of fog caused the fatal accident, as Tony Gregg of Layland testified. Gregg drove the car over the bank into 25 feet of water, escaped, while Supko drowned in the rear seat. A friend claimed Supko carried $1800 days earlier, but investigators discounted the amount. Supko had no immediate relatives in the area.
