REDWOOD CITY, CA (November 8, 2022) – Friday night, Greg Ammen and Grace Spiridon were killed in a fiery crash on El Camino Real.

The incident happened around 7:56 p.m., near Finger Avenue.

Per reports, the 17-year-old driver of a vehicle was traveling at high rates of speed and collided with another car, causing one vehicle to catch fire.

Emergency crews arrived and located both damaged vehicles on the sidewalk of El Camino Real.

The car that was hit was occupied by Ammen and his family. After extinguishing the flames, officers pronounced 44-year-old Ammen and 42-year-old Spiridon, of Palo Alto dead at the scene.

Meanwhile, medics transported the 17-year-old driver and two of their passengers to a local hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
