R.I. political candidate, pro-life activist Christopher Young dies in crash

Shortly after he made an impassioned appeal to lawmakers Tuesday evening to pass a resolution restricting abortions, perennial R.I. candidate and activist Christopher F. Young died in a car crash on Route 95, Rhode Island State Police said.

 

Young’s wife, Kara, posted on Facebook: “It was a medical event that happened while he was driving on the highway (most likely a heart attack), when we were coming home after we all testified in favor of the fetal heartbeat bill at the Rhode Island State House,” she wrote.

 

“He was fighting against the horrific tide of abortion-lust at the Statehouse, and asking for legislators to put these innocent babies before themselves for once,” she wrote. “I believe that his consistent passion, commitment, and bravery ultimately took a toll on his heart.”
