A 9-year-old boy is the sole survivor of a car crash that killed five other children.
"Five persons were killed this morning when the vehicle they were traveling in veered off the Hutchinson River Parkway in Scarsdale, struck a tree and caught fire," the news release said.
Westchester County executive George Latimer said the children’s relationship to each other is unknown but there were at least two sets of siblings in the car. "We do not believe that speed was a factor in this accident," said Latimer. He said evidence indicates that Malik was either distracted or fell asleep at the wheel."The road curves slightly to the left and goes slightly downhill .... the driver did not turn with the roadway continued in a straight line," he said.
