OROFINO — A 17-year-old boy who ran away after his high school prom last weekend died this afternoon following a car crash.

Kristian Branden Perez was involved in the wreck that occurred in Nez Perce County, according to the Nez Perce County Sheriff’s Office. In a news release, officials said he lost control of the vehicle and rolled it over a small embankment.
