A woman in a life-threatening condition is under police watch in hospital after a nine-year-old girl died and two other children were hurt. Police were called to a property in Middle Street, Islip, at 11.15am on Tuesday after receiving reports that three children had been assaulted. A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said the nine-year-old girl was pronounced dead at the scene in the Oxfordshire village, while a boy and a girl were taken to hospital for treatment before later being discharged.

At about 7:10 p.m., first responders received calls about a crash at 400 Broadway. When they arrived, they found a white Chevy van and a blue Toyota RAV4 that had collided head-on and sustained serious damage, according to Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn's office. The van was "located centered in the northbound lane in the correct direction of travel," officials said. The Toyota "appeared to have crashed into the white van."

"His father picked him up and went up to the parking lot with him in his arms to get some help," Kessler said. "They did everything they could."
