Ranvir Randhawa, 17, died in the June 22 crash, alongside Manjot Dhaliwal, 21, and Ajesh Saini, 27, according to the Santa Clara County Office of the Medical Examiner-Coroner. Dhaliwal hailed from Yuba City, while Saini was from Salem, Ore., the agency said.
All three of them were in a 2024 BMW M3 sedan around 9:30 that evening when it went off Highway 9 east of Redwood Gulch Road and crashed down an embankment, according to the California Highway Patrol.
