posted (June 25, 2020)

Last week we brought you the horrific story of 10-year-old Steven Torres, a boy crushed by a butane truck while running an errand on his bicycle. It's a death that has destroyed a family and shocked a community leaving them crying out for justice.

Five days later on June 22nd police told us that charges had yet to be brought against truck driver Yuri Lucas or his employer, Lucas Butane.

And yesterday, one day after Steven's family and friends laid him to rest Commissioner of Police, Chester Williams told PLUS TV that investigations are still ongoing.

And from the funeral in Libertad Village heart-wrenching images of Steven Torres's friends and classmates bidding farewell to a playmate gone far too soon.
