Police say a 9-year-old boy sitting in the trunk was the only survivor of the crash along Hutchinson River Parkway.
Five young family members lost their lives when their vehicle struck a tree in Scarsdale, Westchester County early Sunday.The family tells Eyewitness News that the six siblings and cousins were heading to Derby, Connecticut from a mall when their Nissan Rogue veered off the Hutchinson River Parkway in Scarsdale just before 12:30 a.m. Sunday.Westchester County Police believe the vehicle was being driven by a 16-year-old boy and may have fallen asleep.
Matt Conway, the superintendent of schools in Derby, Connecticut, said he learned the children were part of a family that recently moved to the New Haven County community from New York but had not enrolled in the district. Conway said he reached out to the father on Sunday and offered to provide him information about available supports in the community for him and his family. He planned to talk with the father again on Monday.
"It's the unimaginable. Having to now make arrangements for five of your children to be buried is a very difficult thing for anyone - one child, never mind five that you're going to have to now make arrangements for," Conway said.7 ON YOUR SIDE:
