50-year-old Shane Lloyd and his 19-year-old son, Jakob, were driving from their Colorado home to the University of Central Florida on Sunday afternoon. Their journey was tragically cut short when a white Jeep, driven by 40-year-old Leslie Gehret, reportedly ran a red light and struck their Kia, causing it to roll over multiple times.
