Early Saturday morning in Pasadena, California, a fatal single-vehicle crash involving a Tesla Model 3 resulted in the deaths of the driver and two passengers, while three other passengers sustained serious injuries. The incident occurred around 2:30 a.m. when the Tesla, carrying a total of six individuals, was traveling at a high speed in a 35-mph zone.
Lt. Anthony Russo of the Pasadena Police Department reported that the driver failed to negotiate a slight curve, causing the vehicle to strike a curb, go airborne, hit a power pole, and crash into a building. Tragically, three passengers were ejected from the back seat during the collision, with the driver and two passengers succumbing to their injuries at the scene.
