Town mourns 4 teens killed in crash

A funeral service will be held today in a small New Brunswick town for four teenagers killed in a highway crash over the weekend.

The victims, all from Cap-Pele, died when their car crashed into a culvert and rolled several times in nearby Notre-Dame early Saturday.

Police say speed was a factor in the crash.

Justin Leger, Sebastien Leger and Justin Brown were all 18 years old, while Luc Arsenault was 17.

Their deaths have shocked residents in the small Acadian fishing village, where the young men are being remembered as good friends who enjoyed playing hockey together.

The municipality has asked people in the community to keep their Christmas lights turned off until after today's funeral.
