| A. J. Blugerman |
A Good Friday drive for five teens led to a deadly crash into the Don River yesterday about 5.30 p.m. The Acura SUV turned abruptly off Lakeshore Drive East and plunged into the deep waters of the Keating Canal killing a 16-year old boy who was one of the occupants. The others, which included the driver, managed to get out of the submerged vehicle and swim to the surface. The dead youth is identified as A.J. Blugerman. He was a new student at Bayview Glen, a private school near Don Mills and York Mills roads, and before that went to the all-boys St. Michael’s College School, where he played hockey. Police say the group of teens — three boys and two girls — went through a handrail which was not designed to stop a vehicle. There is a suspicion that driver inexperience may be a factor in this crash. The driver of the SUV is 17.
