Traffic Accident Leaves Two Young Men Dead

Young drivers had a fatal encounter with a utility pole this morning

​A pair of young men are dead and two more young people were hospitalized following an early morning traffic accident.

At 12:43 a.m. a Suzuki sedan traveling west on Ocean Avenue near Junipero Serra, for reasons yet to be determined, struck a utility pole. Two male passengers, aged between 16 and 18, were ejected from the car. One died on the spot while another died at General Hospital. Two other passengers were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, while a fifth was unhurt.

The identities -- and ages -- of the young victims have not yet been determined by the San Francisco Medical Examiner.

The cause of the accident has not been determined by police. Nor has the sobriety of the driver and passengers of the vehicle.
