Friends and family are paying tribute to the four teenagers killed in a single-vehicle crash in Townsville early on Sunday morning.
Lucius Baira-Hill, 13, Aaliyah Tepaa-Brown, 17, Rayveena Coolwell, 15, and Cayenne Nona, 14, died when the car they were travelling in clipped a roundabout, overturned and hit a traffic light pole.
The alleged driver, a 14-year-old boy, was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police said he was charged with dangerous driving causing death, two counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle and burglary, as well as a count of possessing dangerous drugs.
He appeared in the Children's Court in Townsville Monday morning and was remanded in custody.
Sonya Maree Belia paid tribute to Cayenne Nona on Facebook.
"Life is so unfair … you was so young and full of life," she wrote.
"You had your own little ways and unique vibe about you, you shined from miles away and always made an entrance.
"We all just love and miss you so much right now … I just hoped and wish this was all a dream."
Police said the car was travelling north on Duckworth Street in the suburb of Garbutt in the city's north about 4:30am on Sunday when the accident happened.
On Sunday, Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the accident was "horrific".
"There are four families that will be grieving today and for a long time to come," she said.
"It is tragic beyond words."
'Youth crime rates down'
North Queensland MP Scott Stewart said youth crime in Townsville would be discussed at a parliamentary sitting next week.
"We will be sitting down with the Premier and a number of other ministers including the Youth Justice Minister, looking at our programs, evaluating what we are doing [and] what further do we need to do," he said.
"We need to continue to do everything we can to work with our communities, to work with families, to work with police and all of those various government agencies to get this cultural shift happening."
Mr Stewart said youth crime rates in Townsville had been getting better not worse.
"We actually have seen a downturn in the number of stolen cars particularly in the last couple of months," he said.
"When you look at the trend over the last two to three years we've seen a downturn in those stolen cars."
