Chris Marriott: churches lament over Christian killed in Sheffield

Chris Marriott,

Chris Marriott, the father-of-two killed two days after Christmas when a car hit a group of people, was a member at City Church Sheffield. A man has been charged with his murder.

Chris, 46, had stopped to help an unconscious woman lying in the street and was providing first aid when the car hit him and other pedestrians. He was with his wife Bryony and his young children at the time.

In a statement, City Church Sheffield said: ‘We are deeply saddened by the tragic death of Chris Marriott, one of the members of our church. He has been a loved and valued part of our community for a long time and his loss will be felt by many.
