Three adults and a child died at the scene. At least 14 people were taken to the hospital.

Eight are in critical condition Monday morning.

Firefighters say a pickup truck that was on fire collided with a van full of people - trapping some inside.

"People were down there. Somebody came out of their house with a hose trying to spray down the car with it. We were just standing from a distance watching it all happen. The guy in the front seat, you could tell he was trapped. They definitely looked scared, and there were definitely children in the back," said Patrica Lasane, witness.

Investigators are still working to determine what causes the crash.
