An East Bay teen was reported missing on New Year’s Day and six days later, his body was found along Highway 4 in Concord. Investigators believe he was hit and killed, but the teen’s family says the facts just aren’t adding up.
His grandmother, Zelma Johnson said, “I really need answers because saying that he was hit by a car and then found several days later, what happened between the 31st and the 7th? That is a puzzle and we’d like to get some answers.”
Lazenby Sr. said his son did have a flat tire on New Year’s Eve night. He was on the phone with him that day. He said the answer to that question is the closure he needs because he’s already lost so much. “My everything. He’s my son, he’s my world, he’s my best friend and now he’s no longer here,” said Lazenby Sr. “That hurts to the bone.”
The CHP said the teen’s injuries were consistent with being hit by a car. But they couldn’t provide further information as the case is still under investigation. They’re still searching for a vehicle they believe hit Lazenby Jr. It’s possibly a dark-colored sedan with damage to the right front side.
