A witness who stopped at the crash scene tried to help resuscitate one of the victims, but she died at the scene. The San Diego Medical Examiner identified the victim as BreAnna Erickson, of San Diego. Firefighters used extrication equipment to get out some of the other teens. One other teenager is in critical condition, and the driver and two other teens suffered serious injuries. The two men in the moving truck were not seriously hurt. All of the teens were reportedly wearing their seatbelts.

Our deepest condolences go out to BreAnna's family and everyone who knew and loved her. Please keep her family in your prayers. We hope the other victims make a full and fast recovery from their serious injuries.
