A 20-year-old American boy was killed by a drunk driver this weekend while returning from a concert by Taylor Swift in Houston, Texas. On the Gofundme page, all of the singer’s fans are now donating exactly $13: the pop star’s lucky number.
Jacob Lewis and his sister returned from the concert in Houston last weekend, where Taylor Swift performed three nights. Due to a car problem, Lewis decided to push the car out of the way, but the drunk driver, who was later identified as 34-year-old Alan Hayes, actually flipped over in the back of their car.
Hayes had already had two drunk driving offenses to his name and fled. According to the police, a citizen of Meltz followed the suspect in a truck, after which he was arrested and charged with leaving an accident.
