Teens die in blaze after driving Bronco into tree
In Haddam Connecticut two 18 and 15 year olds died when an SUV driven by Michael Dombrowski veered at a tree near the First Church of Christ. Friends said the act was a tribute to Michael’s deceased brother Daniel. Jeff Barton, 15, accompanied him in a suicide pact. The crash followed earlier messages asking loved ones to say they love them. Police deem the incident a suicide mission with no skid marks observed. The church cut down the memorial tree to deter future suicides.
