Community Rallies Around Family of 4-Year-Old Boy Killed in Horseshoe Bay Bus Crash

  • A four-year-old boy named Leonardo Machado was killed on May 28 when a TransLink bus struck pedestrians outside the BC Ferries terminal in Horseshoe Bay around 3:30 p.m.
  • The accident happened as Leonardo, his mother Silvana Schramm, and someone close to the family were coming back from Bowen Island, with witnesses reporting that the bus mounted the curb, although speed did not appear to be a contributing factor.

  • A GoFundMe campaign led by Theresa Morrison has raised nearly $79,000 to cover funeral, travel, and medical expenses, with community members and the Horseshoe Bay Business Association providing support and condolences.
  • West Vancouver police continue an early-stage investigation cooperating with ICARS and CVSE, while community leaders emphasize empathy, support, and learning from the tragic event affecting many locally.
