Six people were killed – including three children – after a head-on collision on Interstate 95 in Georgia early Sunday, according to officials.

The Georgia State Patrol told Fox 5 the deadly crash happened around 2:05 a.m. near the Exit 76 on-ramp to the interstate in Liberty County, located about 30 miles south of Savannah.
