OREGON CITY, Ore. — Authorities say three young people died at the scene of a single-vehicle crash in a rural community southeast of Portland.

Clackamas County sheriff’s Sgt. Brian Jensen identified the victims as 16-year-old Curtis Sowell of Oregon City, 21-year-old Brenna Collacchi of Clackamas and 21-year-old Drew Noble of Cove in Eastern Oregon.

He says investigators believe excessive speed might have caused Saturday’s crash in Damascus. The investigation remains active.
