Patrison Isarac lost his life on Wednesday last week in a freak accident while hitchhiking a ride home on the back of a pickup which was driven by one of his former schoolmates. The driver of the pick lost control of the vehicle when he hit the sidewalk causing the vehicle to topple over. There were six students in the vehicle at the time of the accident. The other five students were treated for minor injuries and sent home on the same day.
