RICHMOND, Va. -- A 10-year-old boy was killed in a Friday morning crash along the 2800 block of Hey Road in Richmond, police confirmed Friday afternoon.
A 16-year-old driver and two other passengers, who police described as juveniles, were injured in the crash. Two of the surviving crash victims have since been released from the hospital.
One man who lives near the scene of the accident spoke exclusively to CBS 6.
"It's the most tough thing I've seen in my whole life!"
Davis Delacruz says he saw a guy trying to help get the kids out of the car. He later jumped in to help that man - and says that what he saw left him shaken up.
"One of the kids had wood through his body," Delacruz said.
Sources tell CBS 6 that one of the victims, an 11-year-old boy, has life-threatening injuries.
They also add that the SUV he was riding in rolled over and came to a stop on its side.
The 16-year-old driver of the SUV suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Delacruz believes the 4th victim was the youngest, possibly around 8 years old.
"The best thing we can do is pray for the families, pray for the kids, pray for the brothers and what they've seen too," he said.
Crime Insider sources have also confirmed that the children involved in the crash are related.
The Richmond Police Department's crash team is now working to determine if speed played a factor.
Hey Road is located off Walmsley Boulevard near Chippenham Parkway.
This is a developing story. Anyone who knew the crash victims or has more information can email the CBS 6 Newsroom.
