Ellie Bush- current event

A 12 year old boy who police said jumped off a highway overpass in an attempted suicide took the life of a young woman instead. Marisa Harris, 22, was headed on interstate 66 around 4;15 pm when the boy came crashing down onto her car. Harris was killed buy her 23-year-old passenger and the 12 year old boy both survived. The incident is being investigated as an attempted suicide. Based on the investigation, the impact incapacitated the vehicle's driver. The 12 year old boy was rushed to the hospital with life threatening injuries  and hasn't been identified. The state police confirmed that the front seat passenger was not injured. Harris' uncle stated that her boyfriend was in shock as a result of the accident, and devastated her father as well. 

This is very sad because it just shows how precious your life is and how you never know when something so sudden like that could happen. this article was probably written  to remind people of that. It is also very sad how a 12 year old boy would try to commit suicide at such a young age. No one that young or anyone at all should have to feel like that.

  1. Sometimes decisions can affect other people too, if you chose to commit suicide, and there's someone who loves you in the world, they could become severely depressed, and maybe do the same, and it continues.

  2. I agree that no one that young or anyone at all should have to feel like that. Prayers for the effected families. I hope the boy gets the help he needs.
