Among those killed were three Santa Ana Valley High School students – including the driver who had recently turned 18 – and a 20-year-old woman, Officer Natalie Garcia said. Their identities had not yet been made public by police. Another passenger, a girl who attends Carr Intermediate School, was in grave condition at the hospital, Garcia said.

Four passengers were pronounced dead at the scene, including three Santa Ana Valley High School students. They were identified as Natalia Vidal Zarate, 17, Jacqueline Torres Zarate, 16, Emmanuel Gonzalez Martinez, 18, who was the driver, and Arely Robles, 20, the Orange County Coroner’s office said.

Jacqueline Torres Zarate, 16, of Santa Ana, was identified by officials Wednesday as one of the 5 people killed when a sedan she was in crashed into a tree Saturday night. A 15-year-old girl is still fighting for her life.
