A car entered a kindergarten on Monday in the northern states, killing four people, including children, police said, AFP reports.
“At this moment, we can confirm that four people between the ages of 4 and 18 are dead,” killed by a car that entered a Chatham kindergarten, a town in Illinois, the police in this state said in a statement, who did not specify if it was an intentional act.
“The driver and the only occupant of the vehicle was injured and taken to a hospital in the area,” the police added.
Several other people were injured and transported to the hospital, the source said.
The governor of the state JB Pritzker said in a statement broadcast on the X platform that he is 'terrified and deeply sad'.
'Parents have said goodbye to their children this morning without knowing it would be the last time. I am deeply endured for these families and the unimaginable pain they live – something that no parent should endure, 'wrote the governor.
The authorities were alerted at local time 15:20 (20: 20gmt) after a driver entered a kindergarten. (Agerpres)
