HUDSON, Fla. — The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) said six children were taken to the hospital after a car crash on Wednesday.
FHP said the crash happened just after 11:30 a.m. at the intersection of U.S.19 and State Road 52.
A 33-year-old Hudson woman was traveling northbound with six children on U.S. 19 when she failed to stop for a red traffic signal and hit a car that was turning.
The woman's vehicle overturned, ejecting multiple passengers from the car.
The driver and the children, all between the ages of 5 and 9 years old, were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
