(KNZA)--Court proceedings for a St. Joseph teenager charged in connection with a fatal crash in April that claimed the lives of four other teens have been delayed.
A Buchanan County judge was told Thursday that investigators are still waiting on lab results in the case against 17-year-old Skylar Lucas-Cox.
He faces two counts of involuntary manslaughter and one count of 2nd-degree assault. Another hearing was set for August 8th.
Authorities say Lucas-Cox was driving a stolen pickup April 14th near the intersection of Riverside and Cook Roads in the northeast part of St. Joseph when he lost control of the vehicle and crossed into oncoming traffic, striking another vehicle head-on.
Four teens in the pickup, ranging in age from 15 to 17, died as a result of the crash. Three others, including Lucas-Cox, were injured. He remains held without bond.
