The driver in a horrific wrong way crash that killed three people in California Thursday has been identified.

Police say 18-year-old Trevor Heitmann was behind the wheel of a $200,000 McLaren sports car that barreled down the wrong side of the road.

The accident killed Heitman, a 43-year-old woman and a 12-year-old girl.

Investigators say Heitmann had a popular Youtube channel where he mostly discussed video games under the name "McSkillet."

According to authorities, Heitmann was struggling with depression when he caused the crash.
