Three Oceanside Sisters Killed In Head-on Crash In Idaho

OCEANSIDE, CA — The unthinkable happened to an Oceanside family on Saturday after three sisters were killed in a head-on crash near Marsing, Idaho.

Idaho State Police continue to investigate the crash that killed four people traveling in a northbound Honda Civic that collided with a GMC Sierra pick-up heading southbound.

The three sisters from Oceanside have been identified as 26-year-old Melissa Rojas-Carrasco, 22-year-old Jasmin Rojas-Carrasco, and 16-year-old Priscilla Rojas Carrasco. Also killed was 22-year-old Juan Pablo Farias from Vacaville. The occupants of the other vehicle, who were identifed only as a 21-year-old man and 16-year-old from Nampa, and a 20-year-old woman from Kuna,
continue to recover from their injuries.

The two older sisters, Melissa and Jasmin, had graduated from Oceanside High School, where Priscilla was a sophomore taking honors classes.

In a GoFundMe page set up by Analy Urena-Diaz she wrote "It is with a heavy heart that I deliver such tragic news: Saturday May 29th around 2pm in Idaho the three youngest Rojas sisters were killed in a car accident on their way to their family vacation. We are all at a loss of words and trying to push through. We are currently unaware of what the complete cost will be to bring the sisters home and to prepare for the proper burial they deserve. There are no words to adequately describe the incredible lives of Melissa, Jasmin, and Priscilla. We love and miss you dearly."
