The cruel irony here stings harder than most. Anthony Canty risked his own safety to save a collapsing police officer on a bus. He won a life-changing lottery days later. Now his life was cut short by a hit-and-run collision.
Canty, 39, was a father of two from Maldon, Essex. The 2020 bus CPR incident made national news. He and partner Katie Sullivan claimed the £1 million ($1.33 million) EuroMillions prize on May 5, 2020. On May 21, he was biking on Maldon Road in Tiptree when he was struck.
Emergency services took him to hospital, but he died four days later. Essex Police arrested an 18-year-old in a Ford KA on multiple driving charges. The suspect was later released under investigation. Police are asking for local dashcam or CCTV footage.
Auto makers have long resisted mandatory built-in dashcams for new vehicles. Insurance groups cite high consumer costs as a barrier. This case shows exactly why that stance is reckless. Without universal dashcam coverage, more good people like Canty will die with their killers unpunished.
