MODESTO, Calif — Authorities in central California say a 10-year-old girl who lost her mother and two younger sisters when an alleged drunk driver crashed into their home has died.
California Highway Patrol officials confirmed to ABC10 the girl died Saturday in a hospital.
Police say the girl was critically injured June 9 after 46-year-old Felix Ferdin allegedly crashed his SUV against their small home just outside Modesto.
The girl's mother, 38-year-old Mari Luz Jacinto-Hernandez, and two of her daughters, ages 5 and 3, died at the home.
The CHP arrested Ferdin and said he got behind the wheel after using alcohol or drugs. He had minor injuries.
The 46-year-old driver is expected back in court Monday on charges of gross vehicular manslaughter and felony DUI.
Ferdin has pleaded not guilty.
