The family of a father and his two children who were killed by a drink driver while out on a Father’s Day walk have spoken of their 'tsunami of grief'.
Ex soldier David Logan claimed he ‘blacked out at the wheel’ as a result of a coughing fit moments before the crash, a court heard.
Logan, 48, has been jailed for 10 years and 10 months for causing the deaths of Joshua Flynn, 37, and his children Coby-Jay, 15, and Skylar, 12, on June 21 2020.
The family were walking their Yorkshire Terrier, Troy, in Abbey Road, Dalton, when Logan lost control of his Peugeot 206 convertible and mounted the pavement, colliding with the young family and hitting a tree.
