A one-year-old child has passed away in Agua Dulce after sustaining injuries in a car crash this morning. Authorities said the other passengers in the car – an adult woman, age 37; two young boys, age 8; and a teenage boy, age 14 – were hospitalized as well with major injuries.
Investigators have not issued any information on what caused the crash, which occurred near the Sierra Highway/Red Rover Mine Road exit of the 14 freeway.
