3 teens identified as victims of violent Northern California Tesla Cybertruck crash

Hundreds gathered in the Northern California city of Piedmont Friday night for a vigil honoring the three young people who died in a Tesla Cybertruck crash the day before Thanksgiving.

Community members lit up flashlights in their memory at Piedmont Park; neighbors and friends said the group had been home from college for the holidays to visit their families.

The deceased victims were identified as Jack Nelson, Soren Dixon, and Krysta Tsukahara, all 19-year-old college sophomores and friends from Piedmont High School.

A fourth victim, University of Wisconsin sophomore Jordan Miller, survived the crash but was left with serious burns.

The crash occurred early Wednesday morning on Hampton Road. According to officers, the Tesla Cybertruck they were in jumped a curb, crashed into a tree and burst into flames.

Police said speed was a factor in the crash, but they have not ruled out the possibility that drugs or alcohol were involved.
