Teen death in community

[therunaway]

Hello all, I am very saddened to say that a young boy, age 14 was killed in a car accident yesterday around 11:30 a.m. I will not release his name out of respect for his family, but I will tell the story. He was in a car with a 15 year old who had his learners permit, which permits a 15 year old to drive as long an adult over age 21 with a license to accompany the learner, well the boy didn't have an adult, he decided he would go for a joyride in his parents' 2006 Lexus Convertible, the boy who was driving was wearing a seatbelt, the passenger was not. The driver was sustained with no major injuries, just minor cuts and bruises, but anyway he lost control of the vehicle and hit a telephone pole, bounced off of that into a tree and over a hillside landing the car onto its top, ejecting the passenger. The passenger was not killed on impact, but later died at the hospital, they say it was due to internal bleeding. I've known the boy since I was in kindergarten, and last night the high school he attends had a candle light vigil for him and over a thousand people attended, after only around 9 hours after people finding out. Today was a really depressing day, and I would ask you to pray for the family of the young man, who are now mourning over a tragic death. Thank you.
