Beaufort man charged over crash that killed four-year-old girl
Police have charged a 25-year-old Beaufort man over a fatal car crash last year in which a four-year-old girl died.
Major Collision Investigation Unit detectives charged the man late Thursday with culpable driving, dangerous driving causing death and other traffic-related offences.
He has been bailed to appear in the Ballarat Magistrates Court on January 23.
The car was allegedly travelling east on Remembrance Drive when it crashed into a tree on April 23 about 3pm.
The four-year-old girl, who was the only passenger, was taken to hospital but was pronounced dead upon arrival.
