The father of a man killed in a hit-and-run by a potentially speeding, inebriated driver says the family is facing a long, tough road to heal from the tragedy. Blade Crow, 21, was standing on a raised traffic island with his girlfriend Aaliyah around 8:20 p.m. Thursday, waiting to cross the street near Chinook Centre mall in Calgary. Crow was killed, and Aaliyah and Ember taken to hospital in life-threatening condition. Crowspreadswings said it's hard being unable to visit Aaliyah and Ember in the hospital — the family is especially concerned about the baby's condition. Friends have also set up an online fundraiser to support the family, and cover funeral costs.
