JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Florida Highway Patrol said that two children died early Sunday after the car they were in ran a red light and and smashed into another car.

Investigators said the stolen 1990 Buick was speeding down Lenox Avenue about 1:30 a.m. when it ran through the light at Normandy Boulevard and stuck another car and overturned several times.

Kadeem Howell, 11, and Cedric Reed, 15, were pronounced dead at the scene. Two 14-year-olds also in the car were taken to Shands-Jacksonville Medical Center, where Cedric Allen was in serious condition and and Corey Jackson was in critical condition Monday morning.

Two people were in the second car, which burst into flames after the crash. Linda Ervin was in fair condition at Shands and Terriney Clark was taken to St. Vincent's Medical Center with injuries described as non-life-threatening.

Troopers said the Buick was stolen Saturday from a home on Shindler Drive. No charges had been filed Sunday night, but the crash and car theft were still under investigation.

I guarantee these kids did know that 9x7=63. These boys attended school and were the students in a teacher's class. For all we know, they may have even been on the Honor Roll. These crimes are not always a product of a lack of education.

I'm sure the owner of the stolen auto will have a lawsuit on his/her head very soon.

There are friends, family members, teachers, community members and church members that will be mouring the death of these CHILDREN for a long time. It is too bad that you have decided to sentence CHILDREN to death because of the possible faults of their parents.
