The roof ripped during the impact and the occupants of the van were ejected, according to investigators.
At least three people were killed in the crash late Sunday morning, including a 4-year-old girl, a 19-year-old girl and another person whose age or gender has not yet been disclosed, Lt. Kim Montes reported.
Several other passengers were taken to three hospitals in the area. Four passengers were taken to Halifax Medical Center, three were taken to Florida Adventhealth and a 3-year-old boy was airlifted to Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children in Orlando, according to Montes.
