Kid Rock issues statement on death of assistant
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 27 April 2016
Kid Rock has said that he is “beyond devastated” after his assistant Michael Sacha was killed in an apparent quad bike accident at his home.
According to The Tennessean, Sacha had been ferrying guests who had spent the evening at Kid Rock’s home in Whites Creek, Tennessee to a taxi. On his way back to the property he seemingly lost control of the vehicle and was deceased before emergency services arrived.
In a statement, Kid Rock said: “He was a member of our family and one of the greatest young men I have ever had the pleasure to not only work with, but also to become friends with. I know I speak for us all in sharing my deepest condolences to his family. I cannot imagine how they must feel”.
“We’ve already been contacted by the press asking if it was me who was in the accident, so I want to stop any rumours before they spread”, he continued. “I’m asking everyone to please respect our and his families’ privacy in this difficult time. RIP Mike. We will never forget you, my friend”.
