COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina officials say four California residents died in the fiery Learjet crash that also critically injured former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and celebrity DJ AM.

The Lexington County coroner said Saturday that pilot Sarah Lemmon of Anaheim Hills and co-pilot James Bland of Carlsbad died. Also killed were passengers Chris Baker, 29, of Studio City, and Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles.
Authorities say the plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. The plane headed for Van Nuys, Calif., went off a runway, through a fence and crashed on a nearby road. Barker and DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, were in critical condition at a burn center in Augusta, Ga.

I KNEW...Em was going to post this. Hahaha, yah, they're ok for now. AM got burnt worst in the face though which sucks (along with other parts of his body), Trav it's just below the waist..for his sake I hope he wasn't commando. Someone who ran up on the scene said they saw them both exit the crash and were trying to put each others flames out and remove burning clothes. Pretty crazy. I don't have any details other than that though as they're being respectful to the families wishes.
