Valley Center Family Killed In DUI Crash Remembered At Service
Three members of the Latulippe family were killed in an Austin crash. The 10-year-old daughter was the only one who survived.
VALLEY CENTER, CA -- The Latulippes of Valley Center were remembered this week, weeks after a devastating car crash killed three members of the family. Keira Latulippe, a 10-year-old girl, was the only member of the family to survive.
Parents, Scott and Nancy, and 14-year-old son, Jackson, were killed on Nov. 11 in Austin, Texas, when an alleged drunk driver crashed his car into the car driven by Scott Latiluppe. Nancy and Jackson Latiluppe were killed at the scene, while Scott Latiluppe was transported to an area hospital, where he later died.
"Kiera survived the collision with minor injuries, but faces a long road of emotional recovery," a GoFundMe page for the family said.
