Mississippi crash victims mourned

PHILADELPHIA, Miss. — Funerals will be held this week for five young siblings and an adult who died when a sport utility vehicle driven by the children’s father ran off an eastern Mississippi road and into a creek.

All of the victims of Saturday’s crash near Philadelphia were members of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and lived in the Pearl River community.
