12-Year-Old Boy Dies in Missouri After Being Hit By Speeding Car Driven by Illegal Immigrant

Travis Wolfe, a 12-year-old boy involved in a devastating car accident in Hazelwood, Missouri, has tragically passed away after being taken off life support.

The accident occurred on December 20, the night before Wolfe’s birthday, when their vehicle was struck by an illegal immigrant traveling over 70 miles per hour in the wrong lane.

The driver, Endrina Bracho, identified as an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, faces multiple charges including involuntary manslaughter and assault.

Wolfe’s family, along with others involved, suffered severe injuries in the collision. Wolfe was placed on life support at Children’s Hospital but succumbed to his injuries on March 6.

A friend of the family shared on GoFundMe, “Travis will be forever remembered as a funny kid with a huge heart and a love for Blues Hockey.”

Sgt. Scott Schnurbusch from the Hazelwood Police Department described the scene as witnessing “two vehicles with heavy damage to both front ends.” Despite Bracho’s immigration status, Schnurbusch clarified it did not influence the investigation process.

Bracho remains in custody on a $500,000 cash-only bond awaiting trial, with a bond reduction hearing scheduled for April 8.

The tragic incident adds to a growing concern over illegal immigration-related incidents, with Wolfe’s death following a similar incident involving a Georgia nursing student in February.

In response tot he tragedy, Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA wrote on X: Another American child has been tragically killed at the hands of an illegal that never should have been here. His name is TRAVIS WOLFE. On the night of December 20, 2023 in Missouri, just one day before his 12th birthday, Travis was a passenger in his parents’ car, when an illegal woman from Venezuela, Endrina Bracho, drove the wrong way at 70+ mph causing a head-on collision. Travis was rushed to Children’s Hospital and put on life support. His parents were taken to Mercy Hospital with broken wrists, broken ribs, a broken sternum, and more. Travis didn’t wake up, and finally passed away March 6. Say his name.
