A teenager from Logan City’s Waterford West has been charged with murder after a couple walking their dog were hit and killed in a tragic crash yesterday, involving an allegedly stolen car at Alexandra Hills.
Those killed were a 37-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman, who was understood to be six months pregnant.
Police allege the 17-year-old Waterford West male was driving the stolen vehicle.
The teen’s charges included two counts of murder and one count of dangerous operation of a vehicle while adversely affected by an intoxicating substance.
He will appear in the Brisbane Children’s Court today.
Police will allege the teen was driving the stolen 4WD Toyota LandCruiser last night (Tuesday January 26) which smashed into a truck and rolled, hitting the two pedestrians at the intersection of Vienna and Finucane roads.
It is understood the dog being walked by the couple killed in the horrific accident has not yet been found.
Flowers have since been left at the scene of the horrific crash.
