The Contra Costa County coroner’s office has identified two 18-year-old women and a 47-year-old man who died in a crash off of Interstate Highway 680 in Walnut Creek last week.

Terri’nae Williams, of Oakland, and Zakiya Thomas, of Antioch, were identified as the two women, and Dimitri Washington, of Oakland as the man killed in the crash reported at about 10:40 p.m. last Tuesday near the North Main Street off-ramp from northbound Highway 680.
