Two young people, Joel David White, 25, and Luiza Vaagnovna Karakhanyan, 19, lost their lives in a car crash in Encino at about 7:14 p.m. on May 16.
Officials said that the Lamborghini was going at 100 mph and above, and the crash against the Jeep caused White to lose control. He was thrown out by the inertia out from the car.
A witness of the crash told KTLA that she saw one of the passengers under the car.
A commenter on the Fox 11 Facebook report of the accident said that his wife saw the car minutes before the tragedy, and that she felt very bad because she knew there was nothing she could do.
"My wife came home in tears last night after she witnessed this just minutes after it happened. She saw the passed driver and knew there was nothing she could do, which is one of the worst feelings. No matter what you drive, think about your loved ones before doing anything that could endanger your or other's lives." said Brian Lovelace.
He added a picture that was the view the driver had before the crash.
"This view is what the Lamborghini would have seen going down just seconds before the crash. The turn in to the sports center from westbound traffic isn't even visible because of the trees... This road is even known for not being well cruised by the police." said Lovelace.
Some people stopped to see if they could help, one woman seemed to have been caressing the head and holding the hand of one of the dead passengers, Janie Landeros told KTLA.
"Horrific, I was devastated," she said while holding back her tears, adding, "You could see the flames. The traffic was backed up. You could see the car but you couldn't tell what type of car it was."
The torn-up wreckage was hauled away overnight, and some debris remained around the side of the road.
The Cherokee Jeep driver suffered minor injuries and stayed to cooperate with the investigators.
Anyone with information is asked to call Officer Garcia at 818-644-8117 or Crime Stoppers at 877-527-3247.
