LDS missionary dies after being hit by car in Malaysia

A Utah man serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints died Sunday after being hit by a car while riding his bike in Kuching, Malaysia, church officials said. Elder Jason Reid Wiberg, 19, of Roy, had been serving as a full-time missionary in the Singapore Mission since October 2012, LDS Church spokeswoman Ruth Todd said.

"We are deeply saddened by Elder Wiberg's passing, and our thoughts and prayers are with hs family, friends and fellow missionaries during this difficult time," Todd said.
