2 Dead, 3 Injured in 4-Vehicle Crash on I-635: Garland Police

Garland police said witnesses told them a white Ford Mustang was driving erratically before stopping on southbound I-635 near the exit to La Prada Drive at about 11 p.m. Three vehicles behind the Mustang — a Nissan SUV, a Saturn and a Dodge — subsequently crashed.

A woman and a 4-year-old girl in the Saturn were killed instantly, police said.
