It is sad that this young lady lost her life. However, if the car she was driving was speeding toward the police officers, they needed to take action to protect themselves if nothing else. One question I do have: If the car was speeding TOWARD them, how did she get shot in the back of the head? I realize it's possible for bullets to ricochet and so forth, but this seems mighty strange.

Why was a 14 year old driving...?

It seems this account is missing what others were stating, that the car she was driving was blocked in by other cars and she rammed one car and backed up and rammed another. It seems she was trying to make a getaway.

Anyway like I stated before, her father the 3 time convicted drug dealer bears the brunt of this tragedy, IMHO.

The keystone cops are lying no way the bullet ricochets off the back seat or windshield it would either pass through the windshield or lodge in the seat. This was cold blooded murder.

>> "If the car was speeding TOWARD them, how did she get shot in the back of the head?

Well, it's obvious isn't it. She was driving the car towards the (disguised) police at a great rate of speed, and was sitting behind the wheel on her knees facing the back of the car. She was reaching behind her to hold the wheel, and was looking out the back window the whole time. She must have had a leg stretched back in a manner to press on the gas.

She must have been sitting like that, because I'm sure nobody would ever knowingly shoot her from behind.

In almost any situation I can imagine it is much safer and faster to jump out of the way of a speeding car than to shoot the driver. Shooting the driver is likey to do nothing to remove the immediate threat of a car coming at you from being a threat to not being a threat. A car going forward at 40mph with a dead or incapacitated driver at the wheel is just as likely to do great bodily harm to someone in front of it as the same car with a live driver behind the wheel. I don't believe this was a self-defense shooting, and I find most "assaulted with a car" LEO self defense stories to be suspicious.

Ques: can a fourteen year old legally drive in this state?
