California Highway Patrol has
confirmed that four people died Wednesday night in Granite Bay, California. The
CHP stated in a news release that the solo-vehicle crash occurred around 9 p.m.
at East Roseville Parkway and Brackenbury Way near the Granite Bay Golf Club.
Officers determined at the scene the driver of a white Mercedes CLS was
traveling eastbound on East Roseville Parkway, when he veered off the roadway,
hitting a tree which spun the car into a second tree on the driver’s side and
caused the car to catch fire.
The Placer County Sheriff’s office on
Thursday said the three passengers in the vehicle were all from Granite Bay and
have been identified as Patrick Gainer, Paul Hammack, and Karan Pannu. The
driver was identified as Jerry Cepel from Roseville, CA.
Fatal Car Accident Investigations
At this time, CHP investigators are still looking into whether DUI was a factor that led to this heart wrenching loss for the families involved and their communities. Pending the investigation, the families may be able to pursue a wrongful death claim to be compensated for the harm, losses, and suffering they’ve suffered after losing their loved one.
