A 17 year-old boy in the back seat was pronounced dead at the scene. A 16 year-old was flown to Doctor´s Medical Center in Modesto, but later died. Another 16 year-old remains in critical condition at the Modesto Hospital. Investigators say the boys riding in the back seat were not wearing seat belts.
