@ Hawaiiohana I meant no disrespect, my only concern was for the family to obtain answers to a true shame. God Bless!

@anticlause...I am also alohanui (i'm on a different computer now). Believe me...if I knew more than you I would tell all. After I heard about this I went onto my son's facebook while he was gone. I was not able to get anything more. I saw some of the reactions of the kids that also didn't know for sure what happened. They thought maybe he was beat up...I think they just didn't know. I am so sorry for the family and the REAL friends. I wrote another comment on the next story.

They said he died because of failure to render aid? Wouldn't that be the same as a hit and run? Manslaughter, at least!

Show some respect for the family, all of us have our comments and posting them here in this forum is not the place it should be done. That young man did not deserve to die, may he rest in peace and condolences to the family may god be with you in this time of loss, God bless.

All I've got to say is stop the BS comments! Have some damn respect!!!! He did not deserve to die like this...NO ONE DOES! It may be true that the place he died at is full of "drug deals"...but just because he was DRIVING by there...does not make him a druggie. I have NEVER tried any kind of drug...haven't even touched a cigarette in my entire life...so, if I drive down there...that makes me a druggie?! I HATE that people are assuming stupid things! This kid was a good friend of mine...and he was really a good kid! My heart hurts for him and his family...I really don't understand who you guys are to pass judgement...especially because I know that HALF the people on here...won't even know ONE bit about him. To ANYONE who has any REAL info about this...PLEASE go to the cops...AND his family! His sister is in pieces...she doesn't know how to cope with this until she gets some answers! Rest In Peace, my man!

@Alohanui If you know what happened, and who did it, CALL 911, don't leave a mysterious message refering to Facebook pages that none of us have access to... WHO DID IT, WHO PUSHED HIM OUT OF THE CAR/TRUCK?

This kid either jumped...or was pushed out of a moving vehicle and the other kids in the vehicle left him there injured and bleeding. This story needs to be made bigger.....those kids can not be left alone to take no blame or responsibility. These kids are doing drugs and getting into trouble...it's all over their facebook pages.....don't let this go un-noticed....we as a community need to stand up and face this!!!

yes, it's a known area for drug deals but unfortunately no one does anything to obliterate it
