A 12-year-old boy has been arrested and charged with murder in a hit-and-run car crash that killed an 82-year-old woman last month, Dallas police said Wednesday.
Police said the boy was behind the wheel of a grey sedan that struck Florence Kelly as she was driving in north Dallas on Nov. 7. Police did not identify the child by name. He is charged as a juvenile, and it was not immediately clear whether he has a lawyer who could speak for him.
Kelly's car was struck by the speeding Toyota Avalon around 11 a.m. as she was pulling into an intersection on her way to get groceries, according to WFAA-TV. Kelly was taken to a hospital after the crash and died of her injuries.
Doorbell-camera footage released by investigators shows a group of people leaving the Toyota after the crash. Kelly’s daughter, Rebekka Kelly, told the Dallas television station that the group did not call 911 after the collision.
The younger Kelly remembered her mother as “a powerhouse of a lady" and “the bedrock for our family.”
After the crash, police said they found a 13-year-old girl inside Toyota who was unable to escape after the collision. Their investigation into the crash is ongoing.

Wait until his father finds out......
You don’t have to look. A Chinese newspaper published photos.
In today’s rules for raising kids he will be in time out for 30 minutes.
November 7th was a Wednesday. At 11AM.
A school day, during school hours.
None of the little darlings - the future Dem voters - were in school.
So, a pre “teen” who was unable to attend school because of racism
Chinese huh? They are always the trouble makers.
/s
This one will grow up to be “special”. He will be dead or in jail for life by the time he is 25. With luck he will be dead.
No mercy, no remorse, not sorry.
“Wait until his father finds out......”
You’re assuming they’ll find the father? Or, the mom even knows who he is? LOL...
(But I did appreciate your subtle humor.)
Let me guess...
Urban Amish?
I have serious objections to the policy of not publishing juvenile criminals names. The public should be made aware...they are just as dangerous, maybe even more so because they know they have been shielded.
With luck, the next person he attempts to rob will be an armed citizen with "mad skillz".
Good one! ;-)
I am not sure about a charge of “murder”. Vehicular manslaughter, reckless homicide, etc. I don’t see any intent to kill, only an intent to drive when he was not allowed and also unable.
He left the scene of the accident without summoning help.
Kinda dark. Can’t make out any identifying features.
Car theft is a felony, hit and run with a fatality is a felony. So he gets an upgrade to felony murder. Texas is not that soft on crime yet.
I assumed it was his parent’s car.
