COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Authorities say a brother and sister were the two people killed when the car the brother was driving fled a traffic stop and ran off the road and crashed in Ohio.
A Franklin County Sheriff’s Office release says 27-year-old Tavaughn Collins, of Columbus, was driving in the crash that occurred around 1:30 a.m. Sunday east of Columbus. Authorities say his sister, 25-year-old Olivia Collins, of Columbus, also died.
The release says Tavaughn Collins didn’t have a valid driver’s license and there was a warrant charging him with driving under suspension.
Two children in the car were injured. The sheriff’s office said 2-year-old Zariya Brown and 1-year-old Zaaki Brown, both of Columbus, were hospitalized in stable condition.
Authorities didn’t immediately provide details on the children’s relationship to the adults.
