2 people killed in Tustin after high-speed crash into building

A man and a woman were killed in Tustin after driving at a high rate of speed into the side of a building, police said.

Around 3 a.m., a patrol officer witnessed a blue Camaro pass by driving at an estimated 90 miles per hour westbound on East First Street before slamming into a US Bank on the corner of Newport Avenue.

The front of the car then caught on fire, Lt. Ryan Coe said.

Firefighter paramedics responded and pronounced the two adults dead at the scene, said Capt. Thanh Nguyen of the Orange County Fire Authority.

It is unclear if drugs or alcohol were a factor in the collision. The identity of the two occupants had not been released, pending notification to the next of kin.
