Two children were killed and four others were injured after a SUV crashed into a go-kart Saturday afternoon, the College Mound Fire Department says.
Around 12:30 p.m., College Mound firefighters were called to assist the Kaufman Fire Department at the scene of the crash at FM 2727 and County Road 167. Troopers said a go-kart traveling westbound on County Road 167 with six children ages 7 to 12 had been struck in the intersection by an SUV traveling south.
When firefighters arrived, one child, a 7-year-old, was pronounced dead at the scene. Three children were airlifted to a hospital and two others were transported by ambulance.
One of those children, a 12-year-old, later died at the hospital, troopers said.
The driver of the SUV was uninjured and cooperated with authorities.
