Waterford — Police have identified the two Colorado men who died in a crash on Cross Road early Saturday, and a third man who suffered non-life threatenin­g injuries.

Police said they found a red Subaru Legacy off the roadway and resting on a stone wall in the area of Cross and Foster roads at 5:28 a.m.

All three were taken to Lawrence + Memorial Hospital where the driver, Robert Sewell, 21, of Bloomfield, Colo., was treated for non-life-threatenin­g injuries. His two passengers, Dylan Richey, 24, of Monument, Colo. and Bramm Miller, 23, of Colorado Springs, Colo. were pronounced dead.

Lauren Laughlin, a spokespers­on for the Naval Submarine School, said Monday that Miller was a seaman who was attending the school. Sewell is also a student at the school. She said Richey was not affiliated with the Navy. A Go Fund me page for Richey’s family said he was visiting a friend in Connecticu­t.

Police said the preliminar­y investigat­ion, conducted by the Shoreline Traffic Reconstruc­tion Team, found that Sewell lost control of the car at 5:28 a.m. while driving northbound on Cross Road near the intersecti­on of Foster Road. The car left the roadway on the western portion of Cross Road and continued through the parking lot of 140 Cross Road, Constituti­on Surgery Center, before coming to a stop against a rock wall.

Police ask anyone with informatio­n to call the Waterford Police Department at (860) 442-9451, or the anonymous tip line at (860) 447-8080. Laughlin said the Navy is assisting police in the investigat­ion.
