Abbotsbury accident: Wellington’s father trying to get to Sydney after the death of his children

Two Kiwi teenagers have been named who died in a terrible accident in Australia that paramedics describe as the worst they have ever seen.

They were Tiari, 15, and Cirus Whakaneke, 17.

The couple died in a car accident in Sydney on Sunday.

A Givealittle page has been created to support the children’s family.

In just two days, 100 people have donated $ 6,600.

The funds will go to help the children’s father and brother fly from Wellington to Sydney and will help cover accommodation and other expenses, according to the page.

“To no surprise, flights are roughly triple the usual cost at the moment,” the page says.

“Every donation will be greatly appreciated, big or small, every dollar counts. Thank you for your support.”

The two boys were in a Holden SS Commodore that was ejected from an Abbotsbury address in Sydney early Sunday morning.

The children died when they were thrown from the car after it hit a power pole.

The driver of the car survived and is in hospital, says Givealittle’s page.

Images from the accident scene show the mangled remains. Paramedics told the media that it was the worst accident they had ever seen.

Australian police allege that Mazen Kabbara, 37, awoke to hearing his car stolen and got into another to chase the children.

The man was released on bail and will appear in Liverpool Local Court on 25 November.

New South Wales ambulance inspector Joe Ibrahim described the scene as one of the worst paramedics he has ever met.

“The magnitude of this accident is absolutely horrendous,” he said.

“It’s probably one of the worst, in fact it’s one of the worst. A senseless and tragic loss of a young life that should never have happened.”
