Speaking at a press briefing at the El Centro Regional Medical Center, Judy Cruz, the director of the emergency department, said the SUV was packed with 27 passengers, which she said struck the semi-truck that was full of gravel.
“Fourteen were dead on the scene. Three of them were flown out from the scene, seven patients transported to El Centro Regional Medical Center where unfortunately one of those has died since arrival,” said Cruz.
