Luc C. Vu, the man arrested following the death New York City independent wrestler Matt "Travis" Palacios, is set to go to trial before New York Criminal Court on 4/2. Vu was been charged with reckless driving, failure to yield to a bicyclist, failure to obey a traffic device, driving left of pavement marking and failure to exercise due care in December 2019.
Palacios was struck while traveling on a bike path in East Harlem about 2:30 AM on Saturday 11/9/19 when a dump truck driver made an illegal left u-turn to get onto the Willis Avenue Bridge. Travis was struck and although rushed to the hospital, suffered serious trauma and was pronounced dead when he arrived. It is not clear whether Vu was aware he struck Travis. Vu was driving for D&A Contracting, which fired him upon learning of his arrest.
Travis, who was returning home from professional wrestling training when he was struck, was only 25 years old. He had been wrestling regularly for House of Glory, CZW and other promotions in the Northeast at the time of his death.
