Tragic NY Crash Claims Lives of 5 Connecticut Children, DCF Alerted Weeks Prior.

The Connecticut Department of Children and Families was alerted about a family that had recently moved to Connecticut weeks before five of their children were killed in a car crash in Westchester County. The DCF interviewed the children who died in the crash in late February at the request of New York Child Protective Services. The circumstances of the crash are being investigated, and criminal charges could be filed depending on the investigation's outcome. The Connecticut Child Advocate is also investigating if the family had dealings with local or state public agencies.
