How they died

Vehic/Purs

A 14-year-old Lamar male was driving a 1995 Camaro on Highway 50. The Camaro was stolen out of Lamar. A Granada police officer attempted to contact the Camaro for reckless driving in the town of Granada. The Camaro attempted to elude the officer and a pursuit ensued eastbound on Highway 50 with speeds reaching over 100 mph. The officer lost sight of the Camaro prior to it entering the town of Holly. After the Camaro entered Holly, it lost control for several hundred feet then collided with two parked cars that were legally parked on the north side of the road. The 14-year-old driver was transported to Prowers Medical Center and treated for minor injuries. A 17-year-old passenger from Lamar was pronounced dead on the scene.
