Police have charged a second 13-year-old boy in relation to the alleged theft of a vehicle which was involved in a fatal traffic crash in Maryborough on Sunday, April 30.
Police will allege the Mercedes-Benz was stolen from a Dalhousie St, Maryborough address around 8.40pm.
Around 10.45pm the stolen vehicle was then involved in an alleged fatal traffic crash, killing three women aged 17, 29 and 52.
A 13-year-old Bundaberg boy was charged earlier this week with three counts of dangerous operation of motor vehicle causing death and one count of unlawful use of a motor vehicle.
The second 13-year-old boy who has now been charged was not in the vehicle at the time of the fatal crash.
Police have found no evidence a passenger ran from the alleged stolen Mercedes-Benz after the crash as initially suggested.
The 13-year-old Maryborough boy has been charged with two counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle, and one count each of driving without a licence, possessing dangerous drugs.
He is due to re-appear in Maryborough Childrens Court at a later date.
