KENOSHA, Wis. — The Kenosha Police Department is investigating after two people were killed and three were injured, two critically, in a crash early Friday morning.
The police department said the crash happened near 40th and 75th, at Play it Again Sports, around 3:30 a.m.
A pickup truck reportedly crashed into the business and when police arrived on the scene, the vehicle was partially inside the building.
All five people in the vehicle were taken to the hospital, but two have since died. The two who died have been identified as 21-year-old Jenna Barette and 22-year-old Dylan Zamora.
Two victims remain in critical condition as a result of the crash, a 21-year-old man and a 20-year-old man. The fifth person in the vehicle, a 20-year-old, was treated at a local hospital and released.
Zamora's relatives said he was one semester away from completing the bachelor's program.
Barrett was a nursing student at Carthage College. The school issued this message Friday evening:
"We can say that there's evidence of alcohol use that was located in the vicinity of the crash. There's also eyewitness reports that the vehicle was exceeding the speed limit," Kenosha Police public information Lt. Leo Viola said.
Security footage showed the pickup truck traveling east on 75th Street about a half mile before it crashed into the store. The speed limit there is 30 miles per hour. It is unclear how fast the truck was moving.
Play It Again Sports posted a sign that it is temporarily closed.
