A teenage girl has died after the car she was riding in hit a curb and filled in Villa Park, according to a news report.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office said that the unidentified girl and four other people were in a 2000 Acura traveling south on East Cerro Villa Drive when the car hit a curb and flipped over. Deputies were called to the scene at East Cerro Villa Drive and Valley where they found the girl and three males injured.
The girl, who was a passenger, was taken with another passenger to Western Medical Center in Santa Ana, where she died. Two other passengers suffered minor injuries as well.
Investigators said they do not believe alcohol played a role in the fatal crash, and continue to investigate the cause of the accident.
