Teen Killed in Police Chase Plea | Huntsville News

A 26-year-old man, Jarvis Terrell Owens, just pleaded guilty to felony murder and assault after a high-speed police chase in Lipscomb ended in a fatal crash that killed 18-year-old honor student Hajsun Jermale Hudson Jr. The pursuit began when officers tried to stop Owens for speeding — he fled, and the chase was called off quickly. Moments later, his vehicle overturned into a tree. Hajsun, who was a high school honor roll student and part-time worker, died the next day after being taken off life support. Owens also admitted to critically injuring another teen passenger, while a third person escaped unharmed. He’s now sentenced to 20 years — five to serve, five on probation — a harsh outcome that underscores the devastating consequences of fleeing law enforcement. For Hajsun’s family, the legal resolution brings closure, but the grief remains profound.
