Her mother, 54-year-old Amy A. Carter of Muncie, was driving northbound on a county road shortly after 4 p.m. Sunday when the SUV went off the road, struck a concrete culvert and overturned several times before coming to rest on its passenger’s side in a field, the report states.
Carter was able to get out of the vehicle, but a fire erupted, killing the three passengers. All four crash victims suffered severe burns and the vehicle burned "in its entirety," the crash report states.
Carter told a deputy she was "attempting to give something in her lap to a back-seat passenger" when her SUV left the road, according to the report. The children were in the back seat in child restraint seats, it states.
