HOMESTEAD, FL : 14-year-old one of 3 dead when car sinks in canal after Homestead crash on Sunday, 14th February 2021

A family is devastated. Their loved one was just 14 years old. Police said the driver of the car he was riding in was turning its lights off and speeding away from officers on two different occasions.

Tears streamed down the face of Magaly Amado as she tried to make sense of where she felt like she failed her great grandson.

Terrance Valivia, 14, was killed in a Homestead crash along with two other teens after police said a car with four people in it barreled through an embankment, crashing into a canal near East Palm Drive and Southeast 28th Avenue early Saturday morning.

“If I was a crazy person and giving a bad example then OK fine, but it is not like that. That’s why it really hurts,” Amado said. “He was a good boy.”

His sister, Precious Fernandez, said Valivia was out with a group of friends late into the night when he was supposed to be home before midnight.
