The sheriff's office said it has identified several factors believed to have contributed to the crash, including excessive speed, failure to use seatbelts, and likely the presence of alcohol, as deputies reportedly found several open containers at the scene of the crash.
"We want to remind everyone in our community to drive safely, wear your seatbelt, and never drink and drive," Lt. Bartschi wrote. "A moment of poor judgment can have devastating and irreversible consequences. Please help us keep our roads safe for everyone."
