Early in the morning on April 14, police responded to a single-vehicle collision in the 4200 Block of Taylor Street East where 16-year-old Shahryar Amir was pronounced dead at the scene.

Shahryar Amir was a passenger in the vehicle that crashed into a pole and flipped over on a stretch of Taylor Street East.
