   Authorities officially released most of the identities of the victims,   
   primarily teens, killed in a gruesome and tragic crash in Santa Ana,   
   including a fifth victim who is on life support and has been declared   
   brain dead.   
      
   Officers with the Santa Ana Police Department responded to reports of the   
   violent  single-vehicle crash on April 5 at around 11:30 p.m. near the   
   intersection of West Segerstrom Avenue and South Townsend Street and found   
   that six people, one male and five females, were in the car at the time of   
   the collision.   
      
   Preliminary investigation suggests that the driver of the car, an 18-year-   
   old male, was traveling at a high-speed on West Segerstrom when he missed   
   a turn and crashed into a tree.   
      
   At least two of the victims were ejected from the vehicle, which was   
   damaged beyond recognition and had to be accessed by firefighters using a   
   ladder.   
      
   As family members and friends grieve, many showing their respects at a   
   growing memorial at the site of the crash, those killed include the 18-   
   year-old driver Emanuel “Manny” Gonzalez Martinez; Aurelia “Arely” Robles,   
   20; Natalia Vidal Zarate, 17; and Jaqueline Torres Zarate, 16.   
      
   The sole survivor of the crash, 15-year-old Arlene Robles, Aurelia’s   
   younger sister, remains in stable but critical condition, her father   
   telling KTLA that she will undergo surgery for injuries sustained during   
   the crash.   
      
   Friends of those in the vehicle that night told KTLA that the group all   
   knew each other from Valley High and Carr Intermediate schools.   
      
   The young victim on life support, who was hospitalized in “grave   
   condition” after the crash and as of Tuesday morning had no brain   
   activity, according to officials, was a student at Carr Intermediate.   
      
   The identity of the sixth person in the vehicle has not officially been   
   released.   
      
   While authorities initially said they suspected alcohol and or drugs may   
   have been a factor in the crash, Santa Ana Police Department Spokesperson   
   Natalie Garcia told The Orange County Register, detectives have not   
   confirmed that and that the investigation into the crash is ongoing.
