MALIBU (KABC) — The victim killed in a rollover crash in Malibu has been identified as a 16-year-old student who attended Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth.
The deadly crash happened just before 8 a.m. Wednesday on South Malibu Canyon and Potter roads, according to the California Highway Patrol. The Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s office identified the victim as Hunter Langley.
He was driving a Tesla when the vehicle “made a sharp turning movement to the right and veered off the roadway,” the CHP said. The car went airborne and tumbled about 30 feet down the embankment.
Hunter was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sierra Canyon High School announced his death in a letter to families.
“It is with a very heavy heart that I share the tragic news that a student of our Upper Campus community died earlier this morning in a car accident,” the statement said. “My deepest sympathies are with the family as they navigate an unimaginable loss, and I know our entire community will join me in holding them in our thoughts and prayers. Out of respect for the family’s privacy, we will not be sharing additional details.”
The cause of the crash was under investigation.
