Gumball 3000 Death
Speaking of needing a driver(see below) the guys on the Gumball 3000 look like they'll be needing a couple cos two of theirs look like they're gonna be in jail for a while. Nicholas Morley and Matthew McConville, who were participants in the cross-border "Gumball 3000" rally, were detained at Macedonia's border with Albania late on Wednesday, a police spokesman told AFP.
Morley was the driver of a turbo Porsche 911 that had allegedly collided with a local car earlier the same evening, killing Vladimir Cepuloski, 67, and seriously injuring his wife near the southern town of Struga.
McConville was being held on suspicion of having tried to help Morley flee the former Yugoslav republic.
Following the news, rally organisers said that the event had been closed in Bratislava a day early because of the accident.
"As a sign of respect we have decided that this year's Gumball 3000 Rally will not travel any further and will end in Bratislava this evening," said Maximillion Cooper, the rally's founder, in a statement.
"As the organisers of the rally we feel that it should be stopped as a mark of respect to Vladimir Cepulyoski who died today after an accident involving one of the participating drivers."
Still, we've an excellent range of clothing and other promotional items celebrating the Gumball Rally. We at kates would like to send our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Mr and Mrs Cepulyoski.
