High-Speed Crash in Granite Bay, California Claims Lives of Two Local Teens

By Frank Penney • April 8, 2025

A devastating crash early Sunday morning in Granite Bay has claimed the lives of two young men, leaving a community in mourning. The incident happened around 3:15 a.m. on Eureka Road, just east of Bridle Path Lane, when a 2022 BMW M3 lost control, veered off the roadway, and collided with a tree. The impact was so severe that the car split in half. The Placer County Sheriff’s Office identified the victims as 19-year-old Kai Gini and 18-year-old Keven Garcia. Both were former students of the Roseville Joint Unified School District, which has since acknowledged the heartbreaking loss. According to the California Highway Patrol, speed is believed to have played a significant role in the crash. Authorities also suspect the driver may have been under the influence of drugs or alcohol, though the investigation is still ongoing. It has not yet been determined who was behind the wheel at the time of the accident. Emergency responders pronounced both teens dead at the scene. The road remained closed for approximately four hours as CHP and fire personnel investigated. Anyone who may have information about the crash is encouraged to contact CHP Auburn at 916-663-3344.
