ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — University of New Mexico officials say two students were killed and two other students injured in a collision involving a stolen truck.
UNM spokeswoman Dianne Anderson confirmed Sunday that all four people riding in a sedan that was T-boned in a Friday night crash were current students.
According to a criminal complaint, Briana Hillard, who was driving the sedan, died at the scene. Matthew Grant underwent surgery but was pronounced dead.
Police say Julia Thompson and Joseph Mendoza remain in critical condition.
Albuquerque police say 21-year-old Joshua Leal was driving the truck when it crashed, overturning the sedan.
Leal and a 16-year-old male passenger fled but were captured later.
Leal was booked on several charges including vehicular homicide. The boy also faces similar charges.
