At least this case seems more clear cut than the LA incident...

he was probably driving so fast to try to get away from that stupid spoiler on the back of the car.

Where does a 17 year old get a Corvette? His Karma caught up with him.

z edge

exactly, did he steal it or what?

dennis50nj

He used the C6 as a weapon and lost, you dont bring a knife to a gunfight, he should have brought a C7

FAUEE

Probably his parents.

Sounds like this kid was a danger to everyone else on the road. It's unfortunate he couldn't have met his end before he murdered that old man.

I wonder why the press always makes a point of stating that the car involved was a Corvette, when other high speed chases they simply say a car, truck or van but you almost never see then make or model called out.

FAUEE

Corvettes are recognizable. Nobody knows wtf a Toyota Avalon is.

Because that way it sensationalizes the story and it allows people pass further judgements on the people who drive a certain type of vehicle that is very polarizing. Can't you just hear tons of people saying, "See those Corvette drivers are all a bunch of no good hooligans".

Although I would never say that anyone really deserves to die in a situation like this, I guess I would rather it be someone who already mowed over an innocent bystander than an old veteran for no known reason.

Good riddance.

A lot less paperwork this way.

This kid was a bad apple, with his previous accident and cops finding a note (suicide by cop or looking for a brick-wall to end it) home problems or drugs/alcohol be interesting to see when the toxicology reports are released, as well as a statement the parents might make.

Kid must of been high on drugs....... Also, I too would like to know who gave him a car like a Corvette after he had committed vehicular homicide...??

Feel absolutely horrible for the father he already killed and the daughter he already injured, but its a little difficult for me to celebrate that a sick, suicidal 17 year old kid is now dead too. A real tragedy here on many, many levels.
