  • On Monday, a car left the road and crashed through a building used for an after-school camp in Chatham, Illinois, killing four people.
  • Security footage showed the vehicle sped across a field, crossing a road, sidewalk, and parking lot before hitting the building with no attempt to change course.
  • The victims included three children aged 7 to 8 from Chatham and an 18-year-old from Springfield; six children were hospitalized, one in critical condition.
