BERKLEY, Mass. (AP) - Two teenagers died and a third was injured in a fiery car crash in Massachusetts, officials said.

A grey BMW hit a tree in Berkley around 6 p.m. Friday and caught fire, according to the Bristol County District Attorney’s office.

An officer made several attempts to free two people from inside the car and got one out before the car was engulfed in flames. A third passenger was found walking near the crash when officers arrived.



The two victims have been identified as Christian Couto, 19, and 18-year-old Devyn Crosby. The third passenger, a 19-year-old Berkley resident who was not identified, is in stable condition at Rhode Island Hospital.

Cuoto appeared to be driving the vehicle and Crosby was in the back seat. The injured passenger was in the passenger’s seat.

The cause of the crash is under investigation. No foul play is suspected.
