Officers add the Toyota, operated by 28-year-old Keith Brazier, previously missed several traffic lights prior to the collision in which it also ran another red light. 14-year-old Mason Nelson was killed in the collision while three other passengers and the adult driver  of the Jeep were hospitalized.
