Sister pays poetic tribute to soldier killed in rickshaw fall

THE heartbroken sister of soldier Christopher O'Kane has paid a touching tribute to her brother.

Krystyle O'Kane wrote a poem for her 26-year-old brother, who died from the head injuries suffered after falling during a pedicab ride in Edinburgh at the weekend.

She also revealed that their mother, Helen O'Kane, also died in a road accident 16 years ago.

Krystyle wrote on her Facebook page: "My beautiful boy has been taken away, you're back with our Mum and that's where you'll stay.

"But one day I know that we'll all be together, me you and Mum, Micky, Dad in heaven forever."

Christopher was on Easter leave when the accident happened on Sunday morning.
