Soldier charged over death at Holsworthy A SOLDIER has been charged over the death of fellow serviceman Jordan Ronald Penpraze killed in a military vehicle crash at Holsworthy Barracks in Sydney last year. The 21-year-old driver of the troop carrier presented himself at The Rocks police station about 10am (AEST) on Wednesday. He was arrested and charged with dangerous driving occasioning death and six counts of dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harm. The young soldier was granted conditional bail to appear at Downing Centre Local Court on September 16. Police allege the accused was driving the vehicle on an unsealed road during a routine military training activity about 8.45am (AEST) on October 8, 2012. Two others were seated in the cabin and another 15 personnel were in the rear of the troop carrier. The vehicle failed to negotiate a left hand bend, left the roadway and struck a small tree before overturning. All of the rear passengers were ejected from the vehicle. Those onboard sustained various injuries and were rushed to a number of hospitals. Sapper Penpraze, also 21, was rushed to Liverpool Hospital in a critical condition with head injuries but died three days later. The Department of Public Prosecutions (DPP) recommended charges, which the Metropolitan Crash Investigation Unit issued against the driver.
