CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. — Parents have identified the three siblings who were killed in a fiery Interstate 75 crash with their dog and a friend.
On Friday, Clayton County police responded to a crash that happened just after 1 a.m. near Interstate 285. Jean Pamphile confirmed in a GoFundMe account that his three children were among the four killed with their family dog.
“My wife and I were awakened by news that no parents should ever have to hear. ‘Ma’am, Sir do you know… Please have a seat.’” Pamphile wrote. “The words that followed was just heartbreaking. “Your kids were involved in a car accident and they did not make it.’”
