A 70-year-old woman has reportedly passed away after her own husband opted to reverse his car without noticing that she was right behind.

That devastating mistake cost him his companion’s life and now, the story has the entire community in grief.

Many residents in the community were shocked to learn that Sydney, the 70-year churchgoer’ was at fault to stand in a position that led to her death.

The 70-year-old was a regular church goer and that is what makes this entire ordeal so much more tragic. The couple used to come on over to the church very frequently but after this tragic incident, that will no longer be possible.

Her husband reported calling the emergency Ambulance services but despite them arriving on their time and giving her CPR, they just could not revive her.

Moreover, after rushing her to a nearby hospital, she was pronounced dead and that had the husband in tears. He blamed himself but says that it was not intentional. “There was no criminal activity here. “I loved my wife so dearly and very much”- he added.

The male driver who was her husband revealed that he is devastated after losing his wife due to his own mistake. Labeling himself as guilty, he was seen being taken by the law enforcement agency for some medical testing.

He came back clear but he says that now, he’s going to be forced to live with this huge void inside his heart.

The incident reportedly took place at the famous Castle Hill Baptist Church which happens to be located in Sydney.

Special prayers were made for the victim of the incident by the Church’s pastor. It’s also so unfortunate and sad that another fellow churchgoer happened to be there when the incident arose and witnessing the ordeal is something that is awfully painful and tragic for them.
