Honolulu, HI Three people who died in a single-car crash in Ewa on Thursday, July 20, 2017
A family member identified the three people who died in a single-car crash in Ewa as Ryan Tuazon, Joshua deGuzman and deGuzman’s girlfriend, Kassandra Kim.
At about 8 p.m. Thursday, a 2010 Scion was traveling westbound on the highway when it lost control and flipped over. Police said the vehicle struck a concrete pillar that supports the rail guideway.
The car burst into flames upon impact.
Honolulu police Lt. Andre Peters said, “The whole interior of the vehicle is gutted.”
Police said the car was traveling at a high rate of speed when the driver lost control, and the car likely struck the curb along Farrington Highway just west of Old Fort Weaver Road, before flipping over and crashing into a concrete support pillar for the rail guideway.
The mangled car landed on its roof, with its tires in the air, on a grassy area on the mauka side of the roadway.
The victims in the crash were so badly charred that emergency responders initially could not say whether they were male or female, police said.
Peters said because of the rail project, the roadway had been closed along Farrington Highway, and had just recently reopened.
Tuazon and deGuzman, both 27, and Kim were pronounced dead at the scene.
Kim and deGuzman have a 9-month old son.
