BEAUMONT (August 27, 2009)—Two motorcyclists were killed and a third was hurt Thursday in a crash that also involved a van and a truck in Beaumont, police said.

The accident happened early Thursday on Eastex Freeway in Beaumont, police said.

Police said two motorcyclists from Lumberton were pronounced dead at the scene.

The victims were identified as Jacob Holmes, 21, and Cru Marlowe, 19.

The other motorcyclist was seriously hurt and was taken to a Beaumont hospital.

Police say the three motorcycles were northbound at a high rate of speed when one rear-ended a van, causing all three cycles to crash.

Nobody in the truck or the van was hurt, police said.

my daughter was friends with one of these young men. He was a good guy. It is tragic when people die and everyone tries to analyze the why's. Yes AJ he was probably over qualified for financing, his family has money, and he has held a job in the oilfield since his gradution at Warren High School. Not many 21 year olds own a house, a car and motorcyle. Be kind with your words. My daughter was the first girl this boy ever told "I Love you" to, and he was a great kid. Jake RIP.
