HOUSTON, Texas -- New video shows the moments where a 14-year-old driver in Houston crashed into a car, killing a 45-year-old woman inside the vehicle.
Authorities have since charged the 14-year-old with murder. The wreck happened Tuesday on Aldine Mail Route Road near Aldine Westfield.
Surveillance video from a nearby business shows the 14-year-old and two other teens getting chased by another driver before the crash. Authorities say the teens damaged that driver's vehicle by throwing eggs at it. The driver allegedly flashed a semi-automatic handgun at the teens.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez identified the woman killed as 45-year-old Silvia Zavala.
Deputies say the driver who was allegedly chasing the teens has been identified and located and is cooperating with the investigation.
The 14-year-old has since been booked in the county juvenile detention center.
