An accident Monday afternoon left a 4-yearold child dead and a mother and two more of her children hospitalized after her vehicle inexplicably flipped along eastbound Interstate 10 on the north side of Boerne.
While the incident remains under investigation, information from the Boerne Police Department indicates the family from Foley, Alabama, was traveling home when the driver lost control of the vehicle and overcorrected, causing the SUV to flip.
During the accident, the driver’s three children – an infant, a 2-year-old and a 4-yearold – were ejected from the vehicle. A press release from BPD states the investigation into the accident continues to show the children were not restrained in their child safety seats nor were the seats “properly secured to the frame of the SUV.”
