ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — A terrible crash in Orange County took the lives of four people over the weekend.
Among the victims was Sammy Lahik, a scholar-student from Windermere High School.

One car crashed into a light pole and the other hit several trees.
One of the other victims was identified as 19-year-old Youssef Mahdar.
