At Rest

Vehic/Purs
Around 1 a.m. an IMPD officer saw a red Ford Mustang speeding past him at 80 miles per hour. The officer activated his lights and sirens to pull it over. It appeared the driver was pulling over, but the Mustang suddenly took off. The officer chased the Mustang, but reportedly ended the pursuit after less than a minute. About a minute later, the police supervisor found the other crashed into a tree near 34th and High School road. Joan Bothwell Diaz, 27, and Luis Perez, 20, were killed.
This record exists so that Luis Perez Valladares, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
