“It’s like the worst nightmare – as a daughter, as a parent to have to go through”, Neville-Lake said of the crash.

“I’m not going to tell you what he said to me”.

His 9-year-old grandson, Daniel Neville-Lake, a Cub Scout who adored Star Wars and Lego and wasn’t scared to be the only boy in his ballet class, was transported with grave injuries to hospital, where he died Sunday evening.

The children were aged nine, five and two. Police said they were in stable condition Monday and were expected to survive. “My condolences xo”, said another. Constable Andy Pattenden explained that “one of the men succumbed to his injuries at the scene. He destroyed my brother”, said Neville-Lake.

The doctors placed the two beds beside one another, moved the children close and placed their hands together as their parents lay down beside them.

Three children, all under the ages of 10 were also removed from the vehicle with life-threatening injuries.

Moments after Muzzo’s brief appearance, the four women whisked by a swarm of reporters outside the courthouse and made off in a waiting white SUV. The King Township man suffered minor injuries as a result of the collision.

Two counts of unsafe operation of a motor vehicle causing death.

The 29-year-old man who is alleged to have caused the accident that has ruined a family is facing an impaired driving charge, and will appear in Newmarket court today.

Muzzo did not speak in court, except to say his name and a few quiet words to his lawyer.

“This news has been hard for some of our students and we have arranged for trained counsellors to be available at school to help students with their feelings”, the school told parents in a letter.

Police said a black Range Rover struck a vehicle that had six people inside, and a short time after that a Mercedes was also struck.

A webpage has been set up to raise money for the family on GoFundMe.com.

“Your kind words and messages mean so much to my husband and I as we sit in our son’s empty room surrounded by our children’s things”, she wrote in Facebook post. The campaign has raised more than $66,000 in less than 24 hours. Please keep us in your prayers.
