On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County medical examiner released the names of all four people killed in a crash in Wrightwood last Friday.<\/p>\n
The victims were identified as 20-year-old Neveah Harper, 19-year-old Cole Torres, 21-year-old Rebeka Citlali and 19-year-old Jason Potter.<\/p>\n
Naomi Potter, Jason’s older sister, was released from the hospital a day after the crash and says she remembers everything including how she lost her three friends and her brother.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
“I feel like a walking miracle,” 21-year-old Naomi Potter said.<\/p>\n
Potter said she is thankful to be alive today after surviving a terrible accident about two miles away from home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Physically I have some fractured ribs and severely bruised lung. Other than that, I have a seatbelt mark,” she said.<\/p>\n
Potter says the group of six went out last Friday near Wrightwood, but things took a sudden turn on their trip back home.<\/p>\n
Potter sayd Neveah had a newer car to her. “She was too busy with the clutch or shift – I saw it all happen. My last words to her were make sure you have control,” Potter said.<\/p>\n
She says that\u2019s when somehow her friend lost control.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“She went to go turn because we were passing a turn,” Potter said. “Wnd I remember holding on and bracing.”<\/p>\n
The California Highway Patrol says the crash happened around 1:30 Friday morning when the car veered off the highway, plunged into the embankment and slammed into a utility pole killing four of the six passengers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Potter said she was in the front passenger seat that\u2019s why she had the seatbelt on.<\/p>\n
The Potter family asking for prayers for their son and for the group of friends as this mountain community continues to mourn their loss.<\/p>\n
“This is a huge event that happened all at once. Six kids six families it\u2019s tragedy,” Naomi’s father, Jason Potter, said.<\/p>\n
The families of all four people killed have a fundraiser online to help with funeral costs.<\/p>\n
The other survivor from the crash remains hospitalized and the crash remains under investigation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Tuesday, the Los Angeles County medical examiner released the names of all four people killed in a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":458006,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[48,52,51,47,50,49,38819],"class_list":["post-458005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-wrightwood"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=458005"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/458005\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/458006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=458005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=458005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=458005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
