CALIFORNIA - Central California police say a fleeing car ran a stop sign and slammed into a pickup truck, killing three
people in the car and four children in the truck.
The California Highway Patrol says police in Dinuba, southeast of Fresno, were trying to stop the car Saturday afternoon for a traffic infraction.
The Fresno Bee reports that the truck was carrying two adults and five children. The newspaper reports that four of the children were ejected and died at the scene. It says the other child and the
adults were taken to a hospital.
The newspaper also says all three people in the car being chased were killed.
A highway patrol dispatcher refused to discuss the accident with The Associated Press and said the agency would be able to answer questions later Sunday.
