WINCHESTER, CA : 17-year-old dies; 2 teens hurt in crash on way home from graduation on Thursday, 1st June 2023
What was supposed to be a night of celebration for a group of students turned into a nightmare after a truck ran a red light plowing into their car, killing a 17-year-old and injuring her boyfriend and his sister.
The horrible wreck happened in Winchester Thursday night at the intersection of Winchester Road and Keller Road.
The CHP says a black GMC Sierra ran a red light and then slammed into the side of a white Nissan Titan, which had the three high schoolers inside.
"It's sad that something tragic like this had to happen after such a great day. I mean, you finish high school, and then... it's just a lot," said Nadia Petrosius, a friend of the victims.
Friends and classmates of the victims have been coming to the accident scene all day Friday to leave flowers and other items at the memorial.
