Christian Oliver, the talented German actor known for his roles in Speed Racer and Saved by the Bell: The New Class, has tragically passed away in a plane crash, according to The Royal St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force (RSVGPF). He was 51.

Details of the Incident

Local authorities have revealed that four bodies, including Christian Oliver and his young daughters Madita (10) and Annik (12), as well as the pilot, were recovered after a private aircraft crashed into the Caribbean Sea on January 4th. The RSVGPF expressed their condolences to all those affected by this tragic incident and stated that the investigation is ongoing.

The group had taken off from the J.F. Mitchell Airport in Paget Farm and was en route to St. Lucia when the plane experienced difficulties and crashed into the ocean. Nearby fishermen and divers quickly responded to the scene and located the aircraft, which had sunk into 70 feet of water.

Coast Guard personnel recovered the bodies, which were all pronounced deceased, and they have been transported to Kingstown Mortuary in St. Vincent for post-mortem examinations to determine the cause of death.
