Two killed when UTV crashes into tree near Antioch

Two people were killed late Tuesday when a utility task vehicle crashed into a tree near Antioch.

The Lake County coroner's office identified the driver as 56-year-old Brian Capaci and the passenger as 50-year-old Jeanette Granger. Both lived in unincorporated Lake County near Antioch, officials said.

Preliminary autopsy results indicate both died of blunt force trauma, according to the coroner's office.

Capaci was driving the UTV west on West Dressel Road near Douglas Avenue when the vehicle left the road for an unknown reason and crashed into the tree at about 9:45 p.m., according to Lake County sheriff's office report.

Both Capaci and Granger were partially ejected from the vehicle. Neither were wearing a helmet or seat belt, sheriff's officials said.

The crash remains under investigation, officials said.
