Authorities have identified two men who were killed in a five-vehicle crash in Glendale.

Police in Glendale say the collision occurred about 2:45 a.m. Sunday, and they're investigating whether impairment and speed were factors.
    
They say a pickup truck struck a sedan from behind. That caused a chain reaction with the sedan rear-ending an SUV.
    
The pickup then hit two other vehicles that also were at the intersection.
    
Police say the drivers of the pickup truck and the sedan both were pronounced dead at the scene.
    
The men have been identified as 26-year-old Luis Espinoza and 32-year-old Joel Agostini.
    
Police say two passengers from the SUV were taken to a hospital for treatment of undisclosed injuries.
