Mother and Daughter Die in Auto Accident

Double tragedy struck in California last week when a 9-year-old girl died in a car accident and her mother passed away just a few days later.

Eyewitness reports show that the 27-year-old woman was driving along a major highway when a SUV cut in front of her. She swerved to avoid hitting the car but instead hit a center divider, which caused her to drift across several lanes of traffic before colliding with a big rig. The impact was so severe that her car burst into flames, killing her daughter instantly.

The young woman died a few days later due to the severity of her own burn injuries. When she was brought to a hospital for treatment, she had burns over 80% of her body.
