A woman in the U.S. illegally is accused of causing a head-on, wrong way, crash that left a 12-year-old Missouri boy dead.

Travis Wolfe was just one day away from celebrating his 12th birthday when authorities say Endrina Bracho slammed into his family’s car head-on.

Authorities tell Fox News Digital Bracho, 33, was barreling down the highway the wrong way, going 70 miles per hour in a 40 mile per hour zone.

Wolfe was severely injured but initially survived the December 2023 crash that happened in Hazlewood.

Wolfe was rushed to the hospital and put on life support. His parents were also taken to a local hospital with broken wrists, broken ribs, a broken sternum and more. 

Wolfe later died at the hospital on March 6.

“Yesterday (March 6), Travis was taken off life support. He will be forever remembered as a funny kid with a huge heart and a love for Blues Hockey. Please continue to support the family as the bills continue to grow,” Andrea DeWeese wrote on a GoFundMe page set up for the Wolfe family.

The Hazelwood Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital that Bracho is in the U.S. illegally from Venezuela. 

“Travis Wolfe, a 12-year-old Missouri boy killed by an illegal migrant. This is what an open border does. Say his name,” Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo, wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Hazelwood Police hope Bracho’s arrest will bring some closure to the Wolfe family. 

“1,700 feet is quite a big distance to travel at over 70 miles an hour on a 40-mile posted road. That’s a long way to travel in the wrong direction and not realize it,” Sgt. Scott Schnurbusch from the Hazelwood Police Department told Fox 2.
