A 15-year-old boy who was expecting a child has died after a horrific car crash involving a suspected stolen vehicle.
Bryce Fahey, 15, and another boy, 14, were in an allegedly stolen Mazda 6 sedan when they pulled into parked cars on Bungary Road, in Norah Head, on the NSW Central Coast, early on Sunday morning.
Bryce died in the crash while his mate, who was found injured along the way, was rushed to hospital in a serious but stable condition.
The 15-year-old was part of a large family and had a baby on the way with his girlfriend.
His heartbroken father Geof Fahey has shared a series of photos of Bryce and his siblings in the days since his son passed away.
Bryce Fahey, 15, and another boy, 14, were riding in an allegedly stolen Mazda 6 sedan in the early hours of Sunday morning when they suddenly crashed into parked cars on Bungary Road, in Norah Head on the NSW Central Coast.
“When you came along son my heart melted, as the years passed we had great, great memories, fun trips and great vacations,” he wrote.
‘Today would be the hardest day of my life. Getting that phone call, the dreaded phone call, to say your son was in a car accident and it’s not good.
“I went downstairs and spent what time I had left with you, my boy, to let you know I’m here. Go look for grandma and pop.
‘The hardest day of my life, you should know that. That one choice to go with your partner ended yours. I love you friend, never forget that.
“Waiting here will take a long time, but I will wait until we meet again, shine bright and light it like you always do.”
Shattered loved ones have a GoFundMe to support Bryce’s parents and the mother of his child.
“No amount of money will lessen the heartbreak or pain they have to endure,” the fundraiser read.
“But it will help Bryce’s beautiful family through this difficult time.”
Others also shared heartfelt tributes to the teen.
‘I have no words other than what a wonderful child. He will be missed by all who knew him,” one person wrote.
Another friend said she was “so grateful” for everything Bryce did for her and those around him.

“You always have a smile on your face and light up the room with your funny personality,” she said.
“You will always be remembered as the sweetest, kind-hearted child who never gave up when the going got tough.
“Your little one will be so proud of the person you were.”
A friend accused others of posting about Bryce’s death because of “power.”
“Y’all are fake, the reason he died is because he stuck to the code and didn’t betray,” they wrote.
‘He never did that, he always had my back in every situation. He ran from the dogs with me and I would do the same for him, but the rest of you would all run to the police.”
Bryce’s death comes after a man shared a TikTok claiming his mother’s car was “hotwired and stolen” by teenagers, with one of them killed in the crash.
“This happened on her night out with the girls, she came home and someone had plugged her car in,” Joel Durrington said.
NSW Police confirmed to Daily Mail Australia that they are investigating reports that the vehicle Bryce was in at the time of the crash had been reported stolen from a house in Buff Point.
Officers from the Crash Investigation Unit have cordoned off a crime scene and are investigating the circumstances surrounding the accident.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
Police are urging anyone with CCTV or dashcam footage of the Buff Point and Norah Head areas between 2am and 3am on Sunday, September 10, to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
