Four teenagers were killed in a single-vehicle crash in California's Kern County on Monday.

All of the dead were from Oakland, Calif. Three of the four had the same last name, according to the Kern County coroner. It is believed they were cousins.

The coroner said Maria Moa, 17, David Moa, 19, George Moa 19, and Rachel Fisiiahi, 19, died when the car they were in went out of control and rolled multiple times while on State Route 58 in Kern County, just outside California City.

Police said George Moa was driving a 2004 GMC Yukon when he lost control. It was the only car involved in the crash.
