The City of Santa Ana extends its deepest condolences to the families, friends, and loved ones of the four young individuals whose lives were tragically lost in a car crash over the weekend. Our thoughts are also with the passenger who remains in critical condition. This is an incredibly difficult time for our Santa Ana community, and we stand together in grief, honoring the memory of these young people whose bright futures were cut short.
Statement from Mayor Valerie Amezcua:
“The Santa Ana City Council, our City of Santa Ana family, and the entire Santa Ana community is mourning the tragic loss of these young lives. No parent should have to face the grief of losing a child, at any age. We must all do whatever we can to support the victims’ families and loved ones. SAUSD has counselors available, and Santa Ana Police Department has referred families to Waymakers for support. My prayers go out to the victims’ families.”
Statement from Ward 4 Councilmember Phil Bacerra:
“As the representative of Ward 4 where this tragic accident occurred, I want my constituents, residents, and the families of the victims to know that we as a community are here to support you in any way that we can. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected by this terrible crash.”
