2 metro Atlanta brothers killed in I-675 crash laid to rest

DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A metro Atlanta family said their final goodbyes to two brothers who were killed in a crash on Interstate 675.

The funeral services for 17-year-old Cameron “Cam” Huff and 12-year-old Gabriel “Gabe” Gay were held in DeKalb County on Monday, one week after the deadly crash.

The crash left their other brother, 14-year-old Travis “TJ” Issacs, fighting for his life.

Bryant Huff, the boys’ uncle, told Channel 2′s Audrey Washington that Cam somehow lost control of his car and crashed.

The car hit the trees along the side of the road with so much force that it split the car in half.

Huff said someone saw the crash and called the police.

Cam and Gabe died at the scene. TJ underwent brain surgery last week at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

“It’s hell for all of us. It’s difficult for all of us,” Huff said. “It’s a nightmare. Oh God, Gabe and Cam, they are amazing.”
