How they died

Vehic/Purs

The 17-year-old driver who authorities say ran a red light during a police chase and killed a passenger of another car, Norberto Canela, was charged with vehicular homicide. Georgia State Patrol Senior Trooper Larry Schnall said Erica J. Wiggins also is charged with serious injury by other and failure to yield. The result was apparently unreported.
