CORONA, Calif. (KABC) -- Two people were killed by a fiery crash that trapped them inside their car on the southbound 15 Freeway north of the 91 Freeway in Corona early Sunday morning.

A male driver rear-ended another car at about 1:20 a.m. The car that was hit burst into flames and trapped the two people inside, a California Highway Patrol officer said.
