13-Year-Old Charged With Murder After Killing Cyclist in Stolen Car

Three juveniles have been implicated in the fatal hit-and-run of 63-year-old Scott Dwight Habermehl in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on May 29, 2024. A 13-year-old, identified as Jonathan Overbay, and a 15-year-old, William Garcia, have been charged with open murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and related offenses, while an 11-year-old who was also involved cannot be charged due to his age. Police allege the boys intentionally targeted Habermehl, who was biking to work, with video evidence showing them discussing their plan to 'bump' him with their stolen vehicle. The police investigation was reignited after an anonymous tip led to the discovery of the video shared on social media, which depicted the chilling moment of the crash. The incident has sparked widespread outrage, highlighting concerns over juvenile crime in New Mexico. Law enforcement continues to investigate the case, with the 11-year-old's potential charges still under review.
