Kids that were killed in the car crash yesterday.
00:06
There were four of them that died, and there were two that were airlifted to hospitals in critical condition.
00:14
And one or two of them worked at the coffee shop in town, so of course the whole town knew them.
00:23
And they're kids that grew up here in Wrightwood.
00:28
You know, best friends and I don't know how six kids fit into a car for four people, but they were being kids, I guess.
00:40
But it's very sad.
00:42
I'm feeling it.
00:45
The whole town is feeling it.
00:48
Been you know checking in social media that people posting their prayers and concerns and condolences.
00:56
And so, anywho, that's kind of a sad thing that happened.
01:07
I'm sure everybody has seen this on the news.
01:10
And they haven't released the names of all the four kids yet.
01:14
But some people in Wrightwood know who they are.
01:18
Anywho, this is (name withheld) K6BNE.
01:21
Let me turn it on over to (name withheld) K6MM.
01:25
Oh, oh.
01:30
K 60 and he came six and it is a tragedy really.
01:39
You know, it's just a waste of life and I am sure it was an accident and you know maybe someone didn't realize they were over the limit or you know we just thought we were going down the road and if we would be fine or something.
01:59
Like that, whatever the logic is behind it, it's flawed, and as a result, it's cost them the ultimate price.
02:07
So just a reminder to folks, it's easy when you're coming downhill to be going over the speed limit and whatnot.
02:14
And you know, maybe a digital device makes a noise, and suddenly attention is distracted for a split 2nd , not realizing that you're driving on a rail with.
02:28
A road with no guardrail, and so yeah, but rather than provide commentary, I just think folks would appreciate their prayers.
