OJ Simpson Dies of Cancer at Age 76, Al Cowlings Involved in Freeway Chase Seen Out in Malibu
Al Cowlings, longtime friend of OJ Simpson and football star in his own right, was seen out in Malibu for the first time since Simpson’s passing.
On June 17th, 1994, Cowlings was behind the wheel of his white Ford Bronco with Simpson who was apparently suicidal in the back seat holding a gun to his head.
Cowlings led police on a 90 minute chase from Disneyland in Orange County to Los Angeles where crowds watched from overpasses as the white Bronco traveled on the 405 freeway.
Branimir Kvartuc, a 22-year old photography student and Croatian immigrant, was able to capture one of the most iconic moments in the chase.
In commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the event this year, Kvartuc unveils a compelling seven-minute documentary short, available for viewing on YouTube.
The short film chronicles Kvartuc’s journey from an aspiring immigrant kid to a celebrated figure in the realms of photojournalism, politics, and public relations. “I was just an immigrant kid trying to make my way in Los Angeles, when O.J. Simpson changed my life,” reflects Kvartuc, encapsulating the transformative impact of that pivotal moment.
Ron Goldman’s sister and father, Kim and Fred Goldman, released a statement on Instagram:
“The news of Ron’s killer passing away is a mixed bag of complicated emotions and reminds us that the journey through grief is not linear.”
The Goldmans vowed they will “continue to advocate for the rights of all victims and survivors, ensuring our voices are heard both within and beyond the courtroom.”
