Distressing 911 call reveals aftermath of violent BMW crash that killed three teenage boys
Richard Alcocer, 18, his cousin Miguel Montez, 16, and their friend Ruben Balthazar, 15, were cruising down the roadway in Pompano Beach when their vehicle crashed into another, killing them.
Heartbreaking audio has emerged of a 911 call from a witness to a deadly BMW crash which took the lives of three teenagers in Florida.
Driver Richard Alcocer, 18, his cousin Miguel Montez, 16, and their friend Ruben Balthazar, 15, were all killed during the horrific crash on Monday.
The group was cruising down the roadway in Pompano Beach when their vehicle collided with another, causing the expensive car to slam into a concrete pole and a bus stop at around 7pm.
'Hurry up!' a frantic male caller told the dispatcher, according to WSVN. 'Ma’am, it is bad. Oh, my God, ma’am.'
'Sir, tell me exactly what happened,' the dispatcher said.
'Oh, my God, is anybody in the backseat? Yes, there is!' the man replied.
'Somebody needs to come immediately, immediately. You need fire trucks, you need rescue fire trucks.'
Witness, Jerry Garcia, said the three teens - affectionately known as the Three Musketeers by family and friends - were 'flying by' to make the changing stoplight.

'The light was already yellow turning to red, and he flew by,' Garcia told WSVN.
The white BMW slammed into another car before hitting a pole and a bus stop. Police said the 2014 car struck the median in the center of the North Federal Highway and lost control, where it struck a 2024 Acura Integra before hitting the other objects.
They were transported to Broward Health North, where they were pronounced dead.
Witnesses described the BMW as 'mangled' after the crash and said it had gone 'completely through a bus stop'.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, with preliminary results suggesting excessive speed played a role.
Alcocer's brother, Juan, visited the crash site on Tuesday, calling it a tragedy.
'Devastated, devastated. It's terrible, going through a tough time right now, we're trying to cope with it, it still feels unreal,' he told NBC Miami.
'They were like the Three Musketeers, always together, every day, always together,' he told WSVN.
