Trial dates have been scheduled for a Coquitlam man accused in a 2014 crash that killed a pedestrian on Como Lake Avenue.

Dae Soo Shin is facing one charge of dangerous driving causing death and refusing to provide a breath sample.

According to Coquitlam RCMP on the evening of Dec. 8, a Nissan Altima was heading west on Como Lake Avenue when the driver lost control and the vehicle went up on the curb, knocking down a lamp pole. The car came to a stop in an empty lot on the north side of the road but Robert Readman, a 53-year-old Coquitlam man who was walking in the area, was hit in the collision and died at the scene.

Shin’s trial is scheduled for April 24 to May 12 in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster.
