A St Mary’s man may face a jury for his involvement in a speedboat accident which killed one man and seriously injured another two.
Philip Colver, 30, has appeared before magistrates in Truro this week, facing six charges after a speedboat he was handling allegedly passed over the top of a 12 foot dory near St Mawes last July.
Dory passenger Benjamin Cochrane, 31, from St Mawes, was killed and his brother Frazer and friend Chay Richardson suffered minor injuries. Colver and three other speedboat passengers were not hurt.
Colver ? who did not enter a plea ? was given unconditional bail and the case referred to Crown Court. He will appear before magistrates again on March 24.
