A family of four was killed in a car crash this weekend in George, Washington.
According to the Spokesman , the accident occurred near the Gorge Ampitheatere on Sunday morning.

Grant County Coroner Craig Morrison identified the family as Dioselina Buenrostro, 33, Gabriel Ochoa, 35, Yesenia Ochoa, 4, and Sandra Ochoa, 9.

Sadly, this isn’t the only fatal accident in the news today. Five teenagers were killed this weekend when their car crashed into a tree in Orange County, California.
