The car hit a tree after striking the girls, said Brown County Sheriff’s Lt. George Weitezel. He said the driver of the car and his sister were taken to the hospital and were believed to be in serious condition.

Four of the girls were dead at the scene and the fifth was pronounced dead at a hospital, Weitezel said. They were believed to be between the ages of 12 and 14.
