Chris Roth was killed in a horrific hit-and-run accident in the early morning hours of February 13, 2016. When the catastrophe struck, Roth was just 24 years old. In Newport Beach, California, Roth was the caddie for PGA golfer Patrick Cantlay, and the two buddies were having a fun night out.
The vehicle sped away after hitting Roth as he crossed an intersection. Cantlay dialled 911, and Roth was pronounced dead at a hospital shortly after. The driver was apprehended a few hours after fleeing the scene, according to The New York Times, and was ultimately sentenced to two years in prison. The fateful night was chronicled by Golf Channel.
