The final moments of a father and son on their way to buy ice cream have been captured on CCTV before they were struck down and killed by an alleged drink-driver.
Braiden Timmins, 33, was walking behind his son Hendrix-Hemi Te Rongomau King, 4, as he rode his bike toa 7-Eleven near their Logan home south of Brisbane.
CCTV obtained by the Courier Mail captured the pair’s last moments together before a white ute struck them on Greens Rd at Regents Park about 11am on Sunday.
“He was holding his hand, his son was on his bike. He would let him go a bit and then hold his hand. They were doing their father and son thing,” he said.

“It’s still hard to believe that they’re gone.
“Braiden was such a lovely bloke. He would do anything for you.”
