A 15-year-old was due to appear in a Leeds court today charged with causing the deaths of five young people in a crash over the weekend described by police as “carnage.”
Three children and two young adults were killed when the stolen car they were travelling in crashed into a tree on Stonegate Road, Meanwood on Saturday Nov. 25.
“The teenager, whose identity cannot be released for legal reasons, has been charged with five counts of causing death by dangerous driving in relation to a collision in Stonegate Road, Meanwood, on Saturday,” said a statement from West Yorkshire Police.
