He said the Sienna car was moving alongside the Rav 4 vehicle when one of the tyres of the Sienna vehicle bursted.
“It fell over the Rav 4 vehicle marked 6172 DLA resulting in the death of one of the occupants of the Sienna vehicle while six other passengers in both vehicles were injured,” the TRACE spokesman said.
