God bless his family . . This is so sad .. And it happens all to often ..
If he was a passenger in the Toyota and not a driver, I wonder what happened to the other occupants of the Toyota? It says he was found dead by police in the Toyota, but no mention of anyone else. Did his friends just abandon him and leave him to die?
How can someone leave a child dead? Bless his family.
