2 Fatal Redwood City Street Race Crash Suspects Arrested

REDWOOD CITY, CA — Two suspects were arrested in connection with a Peninsula crash that killed the parents of 7-year-old twin girls earlier this month, Redwood City police said.

Kyle Harrison, 23 of Redwood City, and a 17-year-old Redwood City male whose name was withheld, were both arrested on suspicion of second-degree murder, police said.

Harrison and the boy were street racing at the time of the crash that killed Greg Ammen, 44, and his wife, 42-year-old Grace Ammen, according to police.

The collision that killed the San Carlos parents occurred just before 8 p.m. Nov. 4 in the area of El Camino Real and Finger Avenue, Redwood City police said.

Responding officers located two vehicles on the west sidewalk of El Camino Real with major damage and one vehicle on fire.

Officers utilized fire extinguishers from their patrol vehicles to put out the fire.

A 17-year-old juvenile driver and two passengers were located inside this vehicle.

All three were transported to the hospital with injuries that were not considered life threatening.

The twin girls were in the car at the time of the crash, KRON reports.

A GoFundMe established to benefit the San Carlos couple’s orphaned children has raised over $525,000.

The “Support for Madison & Olivia” GoFundMe aims to raise $1 million for the children.

“She was my best friend and I feel I’ve lost a part of me,” said Grace’s sister Liza Spiridon, who organized the GoFundMe, according to the report.

Grace Spiridon was a recently promoted Google employee who had a double MBA from UC Berkeley and Columbia, her sister told KRON.

“We would like to honor them by setting up resources for the care of their wonderful 7-year-old girls, Madison and Olivia,” the GoFundMe said.

“Grace and Greg were outstanding people and lights of love, support and inspiration to countless friends, family, co-workers and their community.

“Nothing mattered more to them than Madison and Olivia. The girls, sadly, will need a lifetime of support and love from Grace & Greg's community. These funds will be used towards their immediate and future care.”
