A trip to watch the Victoria Day fireworks in Milton, Ont., turned into a heart-wrenching tragedy early on Sunday morning, when three siblings were killed in a car crash as they waited at a red light.

Just after 12:30 a.m. on Sunday morning, police were called to a collision beside Highway 401 allegedly caused by a drunk driver.

Police said a Chrysler Pacifica was sitting at a red light on Renforth Drive when a speeding Dodge Caravan, leaving Highway 401, lost control and collided with the minivan.

Three siblings — aged 15, 13 and six — were killed, while their mother was injured. Another sibling was injured but survived and was taken to hospital.

The identity of the children is covered by a publication ban.

Two cousins of the family shared their grief on Tuesday in an interview with Global News, sitting at the bedside of the injured mother.
