The cause of the crash is still under investigation, but authorities said that they believe alcohol was "absolutely" a factor with "at least one of the drivers." 

Officials confirmed that the speeding driver was unlicensed. That person's identity has not yet been released by authorities. 

One of the drivers involved in the crash remains in critical condition while the second driver was treated and released at the scene. The LAPD said both drivers face criminal charges in the deadly crash.
