Other vehicle involved in race has been identified
Investigators from the St. Peters Police Department have learned additional information concerning the events that led up to the tragic crash that occurred this past Saturday evening on Highway 94 just south of Jungs Station Road.
It started that evening at a house party in St. Charles. At the party Brad Boss (the driver of the 98 Honda Prelude) had a conversation with another 16 year old boy (driver of a silver Mitsubishi Lancer) that his car was faster. The boys agreed to see who had the faster car. They left the party to race each other.
Brad Boss and Jacob Liscombe were in the Honda and two other 16 year boys were in the Mitsubishi. They turned onto the North Outer Road at Heritage landing and started to speed up as they drove next to each other going south on the North Outer Road. According to the boys in the Mitsubishi they were traveling between 80 and 100 mph on the North Outer Road. The North Outer Road narrows to one lane as the entrance ramp onto Hwy 94 southbound. It is at that location that Mr. Boss lost control of his car skidding across all the lanes of Hwy 94 south and impacting the guard rail.
The Mitsubishi continued down Highway 94 and according to the occupants of the Mitsubishi they were unaware that Mr. Boss had been involved in an accident.
St. Peters police say they will not be releasing the names of the driver and passenger of the Mitsubishi due to the fact that they are juveniles.
